Crews Battling The Boise Fire Report 28% Containment

The Boise Fire in Humboldt County and part of Trinity County near the Community of Orleans is 28% contained after burning more than 12,840 acres. Terrain is very steep and inaccessible so suppression efforts are relying largely on aircraft when conditions allow them to fly. The Six Rivers National Forest and part of the Klamath are closed to the public. A number of evacuation orders and warnings remain in effect. The cause of the Boise Fire is still under investigation.
