The Rough Patch Complex, northeast of Glide, has grown by another 1,000 acres.

An update from Great Basin Incident Management Team 2 said securing the west side of the Chaos Fire is progressing well. Burnout operations are complete on this flank of the fire and firefighters are focused on holding the fire in place to prevent spread in the west. The primary containment lines of these fires lay on the west and northwest flanks. Crews are working on the north from Canton Point through Shane Saddle and onto Bohemia Mountain to construct fire line to secure the Chaos Fire from moving to the northwest. Additional work is being done on the southeast side of the Chaos Fire to prevent the fire from moving south to the west. On the Little Bend Fire, the west mid-section of the fire is contained and holding well. Containment lines are complete between the Chaos and Little Bend fires.

The Jack Fire has containment lines that are holding on the west, north and east flanks of the fires and those lines account for a large amount of containment of the fire. The Buckhead Fire has burned into the Jack Fire to the north. Fire crews are patrolling these flanks and taking action to hold the lines as necessary. The southwest and south flanks of the fire are seeing moderate fire behavior. Tactics on those flanks include direct dozer line, construction of primary and alternate contingency lines using the road system, building and reinforcing contingency lines and conducting burnout operations as opportunities arise.

The Near Minky Fire is at zero percent containment and is the priority for current firefighting operations.

The Rough Patch Complex is at 25,711 acres with 3 percent containment. The Jack Fire remains 53 percent contained and is at 23,823 acres,
