There is minimal activity on the Rough Patch Complex and the Jack Fire.

An update from Rocky Mountain Incident Management Blue Team said firefighters and Forest Service staff are working together to clean up the fire area. There will continue to be a decrease in firefighter presence as deconstruction of the Incident Command Post occurs over the next few days. However, there will be an influx of personnel working in and around the fire’s perimeter. The update said many of the heavy equipment operators, drivers and contractors are local and their work is critical in helping restore the forest.

Heavier traffic continues on Highway 138 as more equipment is hauling chips and debris from suppression repair out of the fire area.

This is the final daily update for the Rough Patch Complex and the Jack Fire. Information will continue to be shared at: https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/closures/7758/
