Blaze sweeps rimrock area
near Prineville on Sunday
Special to Tha Bulletin
PRINEVILLE Prineville res,
idents witnessed a dramatic ex
ample of the traveling speed and
danger in a small fire, yesterday
afternoon as they watched the en
tire rimrock area southeast of
Prineville swept by fire in less
than two hours.
Smoke billowed skyward for
hundreds of feet, laced with ex
plosions of flame as fire reached
patches of juniper trees. The fire,
believed to be man-caused, began
at the edge of a residence at the
southeast corner of the Prineville
residential area.
The City Fire Department was
summoned, but flames quickly
raced out of control into dry grass
and sagebrush on the slope of the
rimrock before firemen and
neighbors could control the blaze.
An urgent call was sent out for
BLM and State Forest Depart
ment fire fighters. Within half an
hour, the fire was racing out of
control ahead of a 40-mile wind
over the top of the rim and across
the table lands above. By 5 p.m.
the fire had extended some two
miles along the rim, behind
ranches south of Highway 26, in
an awe-inspiring reach of fire and
smoke.
As the fire approached green
fields on the table lands, BLM
crews set a backfire in the teeth
of the wind, in a drastic last-
ditch stand to halt the steady run
of fire towards the grain fields
and the Combs Flat ranching
area.
At the peak of the fire, two
separate units among the BLM
crews were trapped and com
pletely encircled by flames that
sniited direction in a capricious
wind. Gale Ontko, fire control of
ficer in charge of the BLM
crews, was in one trap and raced
through flames in his pickup. Lar
ry Bilyeu, driving a 500-gallon
tanker, was trapped and lost in
the smoke for about an hour. Air
search was started for him by
