Reporter thats right pam, this fire continues to spread. Crews are working tirelessly to get it under control. Although there is some progress its very little because of how much the fire has spread. Over 700 firefighters are out on the line tonight. All during 24 hour shifts to cover the fire that has now reached 3,700 acres. One stumbling block is the fires location. The downside is that its dark out there and the country is very, very steep. Very dangerous so some areas we wont be able to get into. But well take you know our opportunities where we can get them and secure as much line as we can tonight. And then well get fresh crews out there tomorrow morning and theyll keep going.

Reporter great news for firefighters tonight. Its 20 contained. Theres a breeze from the west, allowing the to push back on itself. Once the fire is burning into the wind it tends to push the embers and stuff back into areas that have already burned so they cant go into green fuel and cause spot fires. It also slows down the fire progress so we can get our equipment and firefighters in there to take direct action on some of the flaming fronts.
