Other Information
/ Comments

The fire perimeter is becoming increasingly secure with very little smoke across the area.  Few hot spots were detected by the night infrared photography flight.  Demobilization continues with some resources and overhead personnel reassigned to other Northern CA incidents. Weather has aided suppression efforts over the last two days.  Transition back to the local Ranger District will occur on Thursday.  All CDF resources are expected to be available for reassignment or demobilization by April 6.
