Fire crews are pushing into the interior of the Game Hog Creek Fire as they work to establish a 300 foot perimeter free of burning material, the Oregon Department of Forestry said on Wednesday.
As fire crews move into what the department called “heavy mop-up,” portable water tanks and pumps are in place at the fire to support crews in their efforts.

Trees that pose a high risk of falling have been felled.
The area of the fire is holding at 182 acres, with the fire fully mapped.
While the fire is considered 100% lined, the fire burning in the cliffs near Elk Creek remains a concern.
