Cable Crossing Fire, Crews Battle Extreme Heat And Erratic Winds

Glide, Ore. – Very high temperatures, erratic winds, dry fuels and steep terrain combined to produce extreme fire behavior on the Cable Crossing Fire yesterday afternoon.

Although the fire size remained stable throughout the night at 1,110 acres, last night’s smoke column generated a few new spot fires to the south of the main fire that firefighters quickly responded to. The fire remains 15 percent contained.
