Math Branch Fire
The 700-acre Math Branch Fire in the Swan Creek Non-motorized Area is 100% contained, but not out. There are still pockets of heavier fuels still burning. They will continue burning until the fuel is completely consumed or we receive enough rain to put them out.
Visitors are encouraged to avoid the area where the fire is still burning until it burns itself out or we get significant rainfall.
