Another suspicious fire with no lightning in the area. The fire is located in a shade of timber, close to a ridgeline above 8000 feet in elevation. Very similar to many of the other new fire starts over the past 4 days.

Smoke was reported last night, 10/01, but resources were unable to locate until today. Fire is located 2 miles west of Greys River Road, just southeast of Virginia Peak.

Another smoke discovered which is one of 14 in the course of three days. Firefighters are suppressing.

Helicopter 86G and E-421 responded to a smoke report 2 miles west of Mount Fitzpatrick. The Mill Hollow Fire was the 9th smoke reported of the day with 7 fires located, 9/30.

October, 19th-All seems quite within the fire perimeter. Recent weather has inhibited any new growth with any fire activity limited to smoldering duff, stumps or logs. Before managers can make the decision to call they fire out much needs moisture is still needed and the fire is not likely to be called out until the area receives at least 2 inches of snow.

Fire personnel are being flown to the Sherman Peak Fire to take suppression action. This fire makes 4 fires detected today, under investigation.
