This afternoon, fire crews conducted a burnout operation to strengthen fire lines and reduce fuels along the southern flank of the fire in the Tonahutu Creek drainage. Smoke was visible in the communities of Estes Park, Grand Lake, and Granby. The objective of the firing operation was to prevent movement of the fire to the south, across the Tonahutu Creek. Acreage of the fire will likely expand following tonight's flight to map the fire using thermal imagery. Initial assessments indicate that the firing operation successfully strengthened the southern flank of the fire.
今天下午,消防人员在Tonahutu溪排水系统的火灾南侧进行了灭火行动,以加强消防线并减少燃料。埃斯蒂斯公园、大湖和格兰比的社区都可以看到烟雾。射击行动的目的是防止火势向南蔓延,穿过Tonahutu溪。在今晚使用热成像绘制火灾地图后,火灾面积可能会扩大。初步评估表明,射击行动成功地加强了火力的南侧。
In addition to support of the fire today, air operations from the Big Meadows Fire provided a helicopter to assist a search and rescue operation to transport an injured climber in Rocky Mountain National Park.
除了今天对大火的支援外,大草原大火的空中行动还提供了一架直升机协助搜救行动,以运送落基山国家公园的一名受伤登山者。
Fire-fighting resources on the fire tomorrow, June 15, will include an initial attack module of eight fire-fighters, four interagency 20-person Type I hotshot crews, and two fire engines. Available air resources include two 'air attack' small planes used for fire reconnaissance, two light helicopters, a medium helicopter, and one large heavy helicopter. A National Guard Blackhawk helicopter remains on standby to assist fire operations in the event of a medical emergency.
明天,即6月15日,火灾的消防资源将包括一个由8名消防员、4名跨部门的20人I型突击队员和两辆消防车组成的初始攻击模块。可用的空中资源包括两架用于火力侦察的“空袭”小型飞机、两架轻型直升机、一架中型直升机和一架大型重型直升机。一架国民警卫队黑鹰直升机仍处于待命状态,在发生医疗紧急情况时协助消防行动。
Closures will be lifted at 8:00 AM tomorrow, Saturday, June 15th, for five of the seven previously closed trailheads within the vicinity of the Big Meadows Fire. Trails that will open include: the two Tonahutu Spur Trails (one beginning at the Kawuneeche Visitor Center, the other near the North Inlet trailhead), the Grand Lake Lodge Spur Trail, the Timber Lake Trail, and the trail which branches toward Mount Ida from Milner Pass.
6月15日星期六上午8点,大草原大火附近七个先前关闭的步道中的五个将被解除关闭。将开放的步道包括:两条Tonahutu支线(一条从Kawuneche游客中心开始,另一条靠近北入口步道口)、大湖小屋支线、木湖步道以及从米尔纳山口向伊达山分叉的步道。
The Timber Lake Trail will be open for day use only. Closures remain in effect for the Onahu Trail, the Green Mountain Trail, and the lower Tonahutu Trail. Trail closures do affect a section of the Continental Divide Trail that passes through the park.
Timber Lake Trail仅供日间使用。Onahu步道、Green Mountain步道和下Tonahutu步道仍处于关闭状态。步道关闭确实会影响穿过公园的大陆分水岭步道的一段。
There remains no imminent threat to any communities or structures; Rocky Mountain National Park remains open. All major roads and facilities in Rocky Mountain National Park are open as are our neighboring communities of Grand Lake and Estes Park.
对任何社区或结构仍然没有迫在眉睫的威胁;落基山国家公园仍然开放。落基山国家公园的所有主要道路和设施都是开放的,我们邻近的大湖和埃斯蒂斯公园社区也是如此。
