Mitchell Point Mop Up Continues

There was still smoke Thursday night from a small fire in the Mitchell Point area west of Hood River, but crews expect to mop that up today (Friday).  Christie Shaw of the Oregon Department of Forestry said crews had hoped to finish mop up of the one acre fire on Thursday.  But steep and inaccessible terrain slowed work.  Shaw said ropes are being used to reach those locations.  The fire that was sparked during Wednesday evening’s lightning in the area burned about one acre.
