This lightning caused fire has not been showing any signs of smoke or fire activity since July and was called controlled on 8/21.
The main objective was to keep fire from moving south, by employing a suppression strategy on the south end of the fire to protect values in the Buffalo River Valley. This strategy will utilize tactics on the ground that provide balance between achieving desired Wilderness resource objectives and limiting exposure to firefighters.
