snag canyon fire has spread to naneum canyon

[HoofsandWings]

From what I read, the fire is heading up Naneum canyon.

It well past naneum it's burnt across cave, little charlton and the head of Dawson would surprise me with the high winds it makes Coleman cook area by dark

Treestands, trail cams, and cow tags all on the line. Do you know how far north it's burning?

[time2hunt]

At least up to boulder it crossed last night at saw mill flats and was burning across and up canyon.

This is what cave canyon looked like last night.

In my neck of the woods it sounds like they will reevaluate all closures this week.  I really hope they start to open up the woods as hunting season is two weeks away.

I agree.  I understand safety but I mean were 2 weeks away from archery season.

theres no sign of smoke from town the last few days still see about a doz or so forest service and fire trucks coming down recer creek every night around dusk tried talking to a few of them but didnt get much out of them about possible open before sept 1

I pray they do I wanna hunt the colockum.

I'm in the same boat.  Waiting for stuff to open up

87% contained with very little fire activity.  http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/4046/

drove all they way to scout the colockum today only to find the road was closed. Heard that part of the reserve caught fire and someone is scheduled to go up on Friday to investigate and possibly open up the rds again. Just fyi for the hunters hunting that unit.

So my question is if they don't open the roads what is everyone's backup plan on here?

Wonder how many guys are going to do the same thing?  All roads have been closed since the second week of this month
