The north side of the Whisky Creek Fire in the Mark O. Hatfield Wilderness has backed into the Eagle Creek Fire burn scar, slowing its progression.  The fire is 891 acres in size, with no containment.  Central Cascades Interagency Management Team Special Operations Chief Colby Burtalatto says on the east side of the fire, crews are working on an indirect fire line on the 408 trail, prepping it with handline and sawline along with a hose lay, bringing it into the 409 trail to tie it into the Pacific Crest Trail to the south.  Crews are also working on contingency lines from the 2017 Eagle Creek Fire if lines closer to the fire do not hold, tying them in at Mitchell Point.  Those could be used for a burn operation over the weekend, which would increase the amount of smoke visible from Hood River.  The fire is 891 acres in size, with no containment.
