Wildfire Situation Update Date: July 21, 2021 Wildfire Situation Update Date: July 21, 2021 NW Preparedness Level: 5 For DNR’s current fire situation National Preparedness Level: 5 status please visit: NW T2 IMT Rotation: NW Team 6 http://fireinfo.dnr.wa.gov/ (Sheldon) DNR IA Activity: Light Weather Summary: Wednesday, July 21, 2021 1000 hrs. Jon Bonk – NWS IMET Today/Tonight: - Red Flag Warning from now through 2200 hrs. Tonight for wind and low humidity covering most of eastern Washington As of 1000 hrs., the thunderstorm threat has largely moved east of the Idaho border. By one count, about 250 cloud to ground lightning flashes occurred in southeast and east central Washington between midnight and now. Many of those occurred in the primary rain shaft where a couple places recorded close to 0.20”of rain. Most areas received far less, however, and it’s likely significant lightning occurred outside the rain cores. Moving forward, gusty winds are developing in the Cascade east slope valleys and along the higher ridges of central Washington. 40 mph gusts have already occurred. Winds there will briefly decrease this afternoon, but then return later this afternoon and evening with gusts around 45 mph and briefly around 50 mph. The Gorge and adjoining areas will routinely see 35-40 mph gusts. Other east slope areas, the Basin, and west exposed ridges will have gusts mainly 25-35 mph this afternoon and evening. Remaining areas will see gusts mainly 20-25 mph. Winds will largely decrease beginning late evening with locally breezy winds continuing near the Cascade gaps. All this wind will quickly dry out areas that received rain overnight and further dry out the region as a whole. Humidity will be quite low with driest regions reaching 8-15% and somewhat higher humidity of 15-25% closer to the Cascade gaps. With the drier air moving into the region, humidity recovery will be fair to poor for much of eastern Washington tonight, especially over areas that received lightning. Needless to say, this 1-2 punch from Mother Nature will present challenges to fire control efforts today. Please refer to local NWS warnings and forecasts for specific details. *More information below* Burn Restrictions/Announcements: July 20, 2021: DNR Closes Eastern WA Lands to Recreation Due to Extreme Fire Danger This temporary closure will apply to DNR-managed state lands, conservation areas, community forests and any associated roads, trails, campgrounds, recreational sites or recreational facilities. The decision to close recreation and all public access on DNR-managed lands east of the Cascades is in addition to the burn ban that Commissioner Franz enacted earlier this month on the 13 million acres of forestlands under DNR fire protection. The burn ban will remain in effect through at least September 30. Campfires also remain banned on DNR-managed lands statewide due to ongoing fire danger. Read the full announcement here. July 18, 2021: Colville Tribes Closes Reservation Due to Uncontrolled Fires The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation declared a state of emergency today due to multiple uncontrolled fires on the Colville Reservation. The Reservation is currently shut down to industrial activities and to the general public. The Tribes has imposed an Industrial Fire Precaution Level IV general shutdown, which closes all forest roads to the public. State and county improved roads (with a paved or gravel surface) remain open. Read the full announcement here. July 16, 2021: Umatilla National Forest lands temporarily closed A full Forest closure means that the public is prohibited from entering any part of Umatilla National Forest at any time, including National Forest lands, roads, trails and recreational facilities. Access on county, state or federal roadways will still be open. Forest Service personnel will attempt to reach as many people as possible to begin vacating campsites and informing individuals who are camping in the Forest currently. The public should cancel any plans for visiting the Umatilla National Forest for the next several weeks. This is a temporary closure and the Forest will continually assess conditions and lift the closure once the unprecedented conditions moderate. Read the full announcement here. July 6, 2021: Inslee declares wildfire state of emergency, limited burn ban Gov. Jay Inslee today declared a statewide state of emergency relating to the growing risk of wildfires, including a statewide prohibition on most outdoor and agricultural burning through September 30, 2021. Although this order includes some burn ban exceptions (for example, the use of gas-fueled stoves in some circumstances and also small, recreational campfires in contained structures on a person’s private property) nothing in the order supersedes more restrictive provisions by a lawful authority, like city or county governments. The proclamation also activates the Washington National Guard to assist in wildfire suppression efforts. Read the full proclamation here. JULY 1, 2021: Commissioner Franz Enacts Statewide DNR Burn Ban Prompted by increased fire danger due to prolonged drought, Fourth of July fireworks, increased temperatures and winds, the order bans all outdoor burning on all forest lands under DNR fire protection, including campfires. Additional information: Residents who see smoke should call 911 to report the fire. For tips on how to stay safe during fire season, go to https://www.dnr.wa.gov/WildfirePrevention.

United States Forest Service Department of Pacific Agriculture Northwest Region Cover Photo credits: This photo of a snow roller (snow pinwheel, snow donut) was taken along the east slopes of the northern Washington Cascades in Mid-March of 2007 by Mike Stanford, Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) avalanche control technician, during an avalanche control and reconnaissance mission on Washington Pass. While snow rollers are common occurrences during spring time warming in many mountainous regions, most rollers are observed as a solid wheel and often end up as wheel fragments as they break apart in the rolling process. A mature snow roller of this size without the inner middle is less common, especially totally intact like this one is. Most rollers like the one shown initially form through warming and melting of near surface snow. With surface warming, a small clump of snow may release from steeper terrain, warming rocks or snow laden tree boughs. With time the small unstable mass begins to roll and gather concentric rings of surface snow as it descends down slope. The rolling action may produce mechanical separation of the less dense middle (formed initially when compression of the snow is slight) from the more compact outer edges (formed with more compressive forces as the wheel increases in size), producing the snow donut pictured.

Forest Service United States Department of Pacific Agriculture Northwest Region Cover Photo credits: This large climax slide in White River Canyon to the south of Mt Hood Meadows Ski Area occurred as a result of sustained high winds and heavy loading from late January through early February, 2008. During the thirteen days leading up to this February 8 event, the base of nearby Mt Hood Meadows Ski Area recorded over 160 inches of new snow, along with many periods of sustained very strong winds (averaging 30-50 with higher gusts). Sustained low freezing levels (2-3000 feet or lower) for several weeks prior to the event rose significantly on the day of this avalanche, reaching above 6000 feet. The photo shows Asa Mueller, Mt Hood Meadows Pro Patrol traversing under the 6+ meter crown. It is thought that this large slab was triggered by an even larger (10+ meter) cornice fall (see Figure 28).

  • Roadless Area Validation
    May-June 2009 Liberty Bell Wilderness Evaluation WILDERNESS EVALUATION LIBERTY BELL - 608026 114,671 acres OVERVIEW History The area was originally inventoried as three separate roadless areas totaling approximately 157,900 acres during RARE I. The areas were Driveway Butte (6,900 acres), Liberty Bell (145,400 acres), and Canyon Creek (5,600 acres). The Liberty Bell area included lands on both sides of the North Cascades Highway. The areas were combined during RARE II except for that portion of the Liberty Bell area south of the North Cascades Highway which was included with the Sawtooth Roadless area. The RARE II process did not recommend the area for wilderness designation. The Washington State Wilderness Act of 1984 designated approximately 87,757 acres on both sides of Highway 20 as part of North Cascades Scenic Highway which permits management activities if existing scenic and recreational values are maintained. The 2006 inventory removed approximately 56 acres from previous inventory due to nonconforming uses such as road construction and logging; 6,243 acres were added to the previous inventory as they meet the criteria for a potential wilderness area (PWA) as described in Forest Service Handbook (FSH) 1909.12, Chapter 70. The following chart depicts the 1989 Okanogan National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan direction for the 2006 potential wilderness area.

Oral History Number: 133-022 Interviewee: Ashley Court Interviewer: Kim Maynard Date on Interview: June 6, 1984 Project: Smokejumpers 1984 Reunion Oral History Project Ashley Court: My name is Ashley Court and I smokejumped from 1963 through 1982. I was a full-time jumper from the year '63 through '77 at which time I retired and was a, just a call when needed for the last five seasons. During that tenure I made 364 jumps, 157 of those were fire jumps. Kim Maynard: Really. That's a lot. Can you remember your first year? AC: Oh yeah. I had just graduated from high school, I was 18 years old, I graduated on Friday and I went to work on Monday. KM: Oh really. AC: Right. I made 14 jumps that first year, seven of them were practice jumps and seven were fire jumps. At that time, we did not have the two-week refreshers, if you jumped on a fire, that was great, you didn't get anything else, if you were off for six weeks before the next jump, that's when you got your next jump.

  • The*W/Ld Cascades 2
    THE*W/LD CASCADES 2 THE NEW STRATEGY: SUMMER 1963 The recent loud silence from the North Cascades Conservation Council by no means signi­ fies a lack of organizational action, but rather the reverse. Your officers, particularly President Patrick D. Goldsworthy, and your Northwest Conservation Representative, J. Michael McCloskey, have been so busy making news that they have had all too little time left over for keeping you informed. To partly remedy the information gap, let us first of all bring you up to date on the revised North Cascades Conservation Council publication program. The last previous issue of Wild Cascades was March-April 1963. This issue is May-June-July. The next will be August-September then October-November, and so on. There are two reasons for changing to a bimonthly schedule (with this one transitional trimonthly issue to avoid future summer vacation and Christmas holiday conflicts). First, we can serve you with a better publication if our crew of volunteers, and our treasury, is not haunted by monthly deadlines. Second, the improved quality of Wild Cascades requires more production time, and thus reduces its "hot news" immediacy -- an immediacy we propose to regain with brief, mimeographed newsletters issued as needed directly from the Pres­ ident's desk. Through this combination of a bimonthly Wild Cascades and occasional newsletters, we hope to keep you better informed in the future than ever before in the past. Such an improvement in communication is essential in the months and years ahead, what with the rapidly changing situation, particularly in regard to the proposed North Cascades National Park.
