#swanlakefire
Crews have been working to complete a bulldozer line on the northern
edge of Cooper Land. On the east side of the fire area, the smoke is
starting to clear but use of aircraft has been limited because of the
smoke. Drones are being used by firefighters to gather intelligence as
they are equipped with infrared cameras that can see heat through the smoke.
It remains very smoky in the Sterling/Soldotna area but work is going
well on the western edge of the fire, south of the highway. Crews
continue to “mop up”, making sure the fire is out cold along the edge.
Fire activity near Trout Lake may be visible from the Sterling Highway
this afternoon. Do not stop while traveling in the fire area and be
mindful of firefighters working and smoke on the highway.
