Lighter winds and higher humidity moderated fire activity and allowed for more direct line construction. Aerial tankers worked the northern flank of the fire along with helicopter bucket operations. A load of smokejumpers responded to the Richardson Clearwater to do structure assessment. The fire remains south of the winter trail. Increased staffing is planned to meet management objectives  of limiting fire growth to the north and avoid affecting communities and infrastructure. There are 290 personnel on the 19,543 acre fire
