Summary: Last night at USFS, CALFIRE, Pioneer Fire Protection District, CHP and other organizations responded to a fire in the Omo Ranch area near Sopiago Creek Road. Night firefighting and challenging terrain made accessing the fire difficult. The fire burned very actively throughout the night. Direct attack was used where possible to do so safely. Multiple resources are working to contain the fire. Additional resources are enroute.<\/p>\n
Current Situation: Firefighters continue to go direct with suppression efforts where possible, and are using helicopter bucket drops in accessible areas. Air tankers and super scoopers have been ordered.<\/p>\n
