Fire Crosses Highway 18 Warning: The following information is highly speculative and based upon unconfirmed sources and sparce information. Do not assume any losses based upon this information.

Between 10 PM and 11 PM on Monday, the Old Fire broke through the fire lines near Rimforest. Some reports place the fire near Pine St. The fire is mostly crowning (remaining in the treetops), but there are some structures involved or threatened. The communication tower at Strawberry Peak has been lost hampering communications and our ability to listen. Firefighters are retreating from the area. The fire is burning towards Rimforest, Twin Peaks, and Blue Jay.

Below is a rendering of where the fire may be based upon the sparce information available. This may be inaccurate. Do not rely on this for any idea of structure loss. Even if the fire is in this area, the fire has tended to spot and leap over area. Do not assume all areas in red have burned.

You're doing an EXCELLENT job. Prayers for all the firefighters, their families, the people who have lost their homes or loved ones.

God bless y'all...
