Cameron Peak Fire now 17% contained

Fire man­age­ment offi­cials report­ed Tues­day night that they had increased con­tain­ment of the Cameron Peak Fire to 17%.

The con­tain­ment increase came at the south­east cor­ner of the fire, near Buck­horn, accord­ing to the Cameron Peak Fire Face­book page.

Acreage burned increased by 122 acres, accord­ing to the post.

The fire has burned 104,652 acres since it ignit­ed Aug. 13.

Ear­li­er Tues­day fire man­agers said fire­fight­ers were work­ing day and night shifts, and because the fire had burned into more favor­able ter­rain, large air tankers were being used to drop retar­dant to slow advancement.

Weath­er in the fire area Tues­day includ­ed high-based show­ers, increased cloud cov­er and winds were the light­est they have been in the last week with only a few gusts near 20 mph.

Sim­i­lar con­di­tions are expect­ed Wednes­day, although wind direc­tion is expect­ed to change due to a pass­ing trough.

Vol­un­tary evac­u­a­tions for Glen Haven, the Glen Haven Retreat, Storm Moun­tain and Coun­ty Road 43 were lift­ed Tuesday.

Manda­to­ry evac­u­a­tion orders remained in place for Red Feath­er Lakes and Crys­tal Lakes, and vol­un­tary evac­u­a­tion orders are in place for Glac­i­er View fil­ings, the Lady Moon area and Mag­ic Sky Ranch area.

The fire is burn­ing about 15 miles south­west of Red Feath­er Lakes.

The cause is still under investigation.
