The Oregon Department of Forestry and the Oregon State Police are seeking information on how a fire that burned nearly an acre of older logging slash on Middle Mountain south of Hood River started. The fire on Monday afternoon was on Hood River County forestland and was spotted by the ODF Central Oregon District’s detection camera operator. ODF says the fire was human caused and is under investigation. Anyone with information that could help investigators find the person responsible for the fire is asked to call the Oregon State Police Tip Line at 800-452-7888. The ODF declared fire season in the region underway last weekend.
