Fire Crews
Dispatched
Eleven Snake River Valley
fire fighting crews were dis­
patched Wednesday from the
Vale District BLM Fire Con­
trol Office to Prescott, Ari­
zona to assist in controlling an
8,000 acre fire burning in tim­
ber near that city.
George R. Burr, BLM district
manager, said the request for
fire crews came early Wed­
nesday morning from the U. S.
Forest Service in Arizona. Fire
fighters are working under ad­
verse weather conditions that
include strong winds, he said,
and control of the large blaze,
named Battle Fire, cannot be
projected at this time.
Six liaison officers from the
Bureau of Land Management and
five from the Forest Service
accompanied the crews.
Gurr said a new policy this
year requires that all fire fight­
ing crew members have physi­
cal examinations and the re­
quired
identification cards
prior to going on fire call He
urged those persons who have
not yet completed these re­
quirements to do so as quickly
as possible.
These are the first crews
dispatched this year from the
Vale District. Extreme dry con­
ditions are prevalent through­
out the Southwest because of
a long drought, he added.

Youth and adult groups on a

the camp schedule. The spa­
cious facility can handle groups
up to 150 jieople. "The large
lodge, 10 “A” frame sleeping
units, boys and girls restrooms
and other facilities offer an
excellent place for youth and
adult programs” states McKay.

use of the facility are included
in the daily fee of $3.50 for
member youth groups and up to
$6.00 for adult groups. The

the Strawberry Mountains?
