Progress is going well on the 100 Mile Creek Fire that is still estimated at around 9,400 acres with very little spread and activity observed. There are currently 221 personnel: hand crews, Smoke Jumpers, and support staff assigned to the fire. Hand crews continue direct line construction from the northeast to the west along the northern fire perimeter. Additional resource will continue to be inserted along the northern perimeter.
The Alaska Fire Service and Army Alaska are exploring the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) over the fire.
