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 scan box was increased tonight to try and located the reported new fire in the area southwest of the Goat Creek Fire. I was unable to locate any heat signatures. Goat Creek consisted today of only isolated heat sources. Slide Rock has scattered heat in the southwest corner Slide Rock has a tiny amount of scattered heat along the southwest corner and southern edge. Little Hogback had an increase in intense heat today. It looks like the large interior island is beginning to burn out. Acreages for each fire are the following: Slide Rock – 875 Acres Goat Creek – 8,324 Acres Little Hogback – 29,418 Please let me know if there are any questions, comments or requests for additional IR products. Thank you.
