Crews Making Progress On East End Of Big Horn Fire

Additional resources have arrived to help with suppression efforts on the Big Horn Fire in eastern Klickitat County.  The Southeast Washington Interagency Management Team said today containment remains at 21%, with the size of the fire now at 49,063 acres.  Highway 14 from Roosevelt to Alderdale Road remained closed, as the fire did reach the highway.  Today’s weather brought lower temperatures, lower winds, and an increase in relative humidity, aiding suppression efforts.  Evacuation levels remain in effect.  Fire officials have confirmed four structures have been damaged, but didn’t have any other details on what kind of buildings they were.
