Comments /notes on tonight’s mission and this interpretation: I began with a shapefile from the prior day’s IR for the Sapphire Complex. The Little Hogback has a significant amount of intense heat along the Southeast corner of the fire. Scattered heat is still present across most of the incident. Slide Rock shows only a few locations of isolated heat. Goat Creek has a small amount of activity along the eastern edge, but consists mostly of isolated heat sources. Previous IR interpretation delineated some fairly large unburned islands within the Little Hogback Fire. Tonight, cloud cover impacted that area. Will continue to watch these areas for heat. Acreages for each fire are the following: Slide Rock – 875 Acres Goat Creek – 8,120 Acres Little Hogback – 28,779 The imagery was mostly clear, some cloud cover present. Please let me know if there are any questions, comments or requests for additional IR products. Thank you.
