The summer homes located on upper Middle Piney Creek were successfully
defended by firefighters and as of 8:00 p.m. Sunday were only

limbing. As of 9:00 p.m. the facility was only minimally affected.
The fire continued around the burnout area and crossed Middle Piney
road at Star Hill. Changing winds, very low humidity and high
temperatures helped contribute 2,469 acres to the fire.

theBig Piney-Marbleton airport and heavy tankers from Pocatello,
Idahowill be used to help firefighters try to contain the
north-northeast fire boundary. Firefighters will continueto construct
and improve fire line along the south-southwest portion of the fire
area.

Road to minimize congestion and ensure safety.
