The U.S. Forest Service placed containment of the White River Fire in the Mt. Hood National Forest at 5% today. Officials reported Monday that the size of the fire was dropped to 1,102 acres after resolving a mapping error and new infrared data. Fire officials say firing operations have started along both the east and west ends of the fire toward the White River, and work to improve contingency lines will continue. The fire is expected to be active Monday, with short runs up steep slopes where slope and wind align and short range spotting probable to the north and east expected to test established lines and making creating line to the east a challenge. Preparation and burnout operations are taking place along both the east and west flanks of the fire, continuing to remove unburned fuels between Forest Service Road 48 and the main fire.
