Boxcar And Jack Knife Fires Near Full Containment

Estimated containment of the Boxcar Fire has increased to 85%, with the Jack Knife Fire up to 95%.  The Boxcar Fire south of Maupin is now listed as 100,207 acres in size, with the Jack Knife Fire at 15,676 acres, but fire officials say there was no significant growth Tuesday, with the small increase in acreage due to more accurate mapping.  A number of resources are being released to other fires in the West, with management shifting from a Type 2 to a Type 3 team on Thursday morning. All roads in the vicinity of Maupin are open and the Deschutes River is open to recreation.
