Fire crews from across Washington continue their fight against the Dry Gulch and Silcott wildfires burning in Asotin County.
The rapidly spreading wildfires had consumed about 28,000 acres as of Thursday night. Some residents along Peola and McGuire Gulch roads, west of Clarkston, have evacuated their homes, and six outbuildings in the Asotin Creek area were destroyed. About 450 structures are threatened. Several other parts of Asotin County were put on alert and asked to prepare to leave at a moment’s notice if the fire heads toward the Clarkston Heights.
Level 2 evacuations are in place south of Critchfield Road to Asotin Creek, which includes the Quail Ridge Golf Course neighborhood, Cherry Street area and Cleman’s Addition. Level 3 evacuations are in place along parts of Asotin Creek Road, which means it’s time to go. Law enforcement officials from the Asotin County Sheriff’s Office are notifying residents who need to leave their homes.
