Summary edit

Description

On September 3, 2017, fire staff held a community meeting to provide an overview of the Chetco Bar wildfire. The meeting was held at the Illinois Valley High School in Cave Junction. It was attended by more than 550 people.

The Chetco Bar Fire was reported on July 12, 2017. The initial size-up of the fire was 1/4 acre burning in the 2002 Biscuit Fire and 1987 Silver Fire scars located in the Kalmiopsis Wilderness, roughly six air miles west of Pearsoll Peak and north of the Chetco River. The fire is approximately 5 miles northeast of Brookings, Oregon. The area is comprised of mixed conifer and deciduous forest, brush and snags from the 2002 Biscuit Fire and 1987 Silver Fire. The fire is burning in areas of fire scar and islands that were previously unburned. The combination of down, dead fuels with a newly cured grass makes the terrain quite hazardous for firefighters.
