A map from late Sunday of the Gwen Fire to the north of us. The rains Monday evening and Tuesday morning gave some relief to the firefighters. Also Highway 12 was closed from Spalding to Agatha but has now been reopened as has Highway 3 which goes from Arrow Junction through Juliaetta. Hazards still remain along the highways. The red shows areas that were ordered to evacuate. As of Tuesday morning Inciweb reports the fire as 10% contained and evacuation orders are still in effect.  Click on the photo for a larger view.
