St. Clair Fire Burning on Tonto - Update

PHOENIX: May 13, 2005

Firefighters battling the St. Clair Fire burning on the Tonto National Forest have stopped its forward progress.

The fire, which burned approximately 1,100 acres early today, was caused by a vehicle fire on Horseshoe Road early Friday morning near Bartlett and Horseshoe lakes. The Forest Service temporarily closed Bartlett Road at the Cave Creek Ranger Station, but reopened the road at 2 p.m., allowing public access to Bartlett Reservoir. The road to Horseshoe Lake remains closed.

Currently, three heavy air tankers, two single engine air tankers, four type 1 handcrews, one heavy helicopter, one type 3 helicopter and about 10 fire engines are busy completing fire lines around the burned out area and putting out hotspots. Although the fire is not contained, firefighers are increasingly bringing it under control.

For more information, call the Tonto National Forest at 602-225-5200.

Fanatic - I forgot to add that you owe me a 12'er for that trout anatomy bet.

I can prove it too.

If you can't get out tonight, maybe we can hit the lower Salt on Sunday morning.

Doesnt look like I am going to make it for the overnighter this evening. My wife informed me that even though she just got back from a week long business trip to Idaho, she now has to catch a plane to California this afternoon at like 3:30.

Lower salt sounds fun.. I guess I am bringing the beer.. Problem is I hate buying beer in anything less than an 18PK..

Might be just as well. I drank too much beer watching the game last night and could use a nap.

Call me after you are up and around the morning.

You'll need to drink a lot of beer to ease the pain during the LSU-ASU game. :-)

I'm actually an ASU fan most of the time. I lived in Tempe in 1986 and became a fan while I was there. Geaux Sun Devils.
