Final Update: Ranch Fire Along Horse Lake Road Contained at 3,380 Acres

The Ranch Fire which burned along Horse Lake road is 98% contained

The lightning-caused R1 Ranch Fire, which burned 3,380 acres of grass, sage and juniper on BLM land 13-miles northeast of Susanville is 98% contained according to fire officials.

The California Interagency Incident Management Team has transferred command of the fire back to local resources who will continue to patrol the fire.

Yesterday crews concentrated on suppression repair and mopping up the last few isolated hot spots. Afternoon winds may cause unburned islands of vegetation within the fire perimeter to ignite and burn; these are well within containment lines but are being carefully monitored by firefighters.

Residents and visitors are reminded that firefighters are still working on the R1 Ranch Fire. Please use caution when traveling through or in the fire area.

The Temporary Flight Restriction in place for the R1 Ranch Fire has been lifted.
