fire. The blaze burned
across 12,270 acres on the
reservation.
Close to 700 personnel
have helped in containing
this fire, located 22 miles
west of Warm Springs.
There were no build

On some days during

a potentially dangerous
situation for people with
certain m edical condi

The advice from the
Fire D epartm ent is to
keep your windows closed
and stay indôôfs as much
as possible during smokey

with serious conditions
should leave for a less
smokey area.
