Current Situation: Smoke blanketing the area caused difficult breathing and poor visibility for residents and fire personnel in the the Malo/Curlew/Danville, Kettle River valley, and much of northeast Washington. Calm winds and smoke resulted in less intense fire activity on these fires. Firefighters made progress in completing line on both the west side of the Stickpin Fire and the east and south side of the Renner Fire. Helicopters have not been used in the past few days because visibility has been too poor.
