Containment on the Rough Patch Complex is up to 71 percent.

The Rocky Mountain Incident Management Blue Team assumed command of the Rough Patch Complex and the Jack Fire on Friday night at 7:00 p.m.

An update said that repairing roadways, handline and dozer line from suppression efforts prior to the recent precipitation will be ongoing. This includes building water bars across hand and dozer line, spreading slash on bare soil, felling hazard trees, chipping cut material and hauling logs and slash off site.

Minimal fire activity remains in the Bulldog Creek drainage, Horse Heaven Creek and the eastern portion of the Buckhead Fire around Raven Rock Peak. Firefighters continue to monitor these areas and will take suppression actions where needed.

The Jack Fire is now 83 percent contained. Approximately 300 people are working on the complex.
