Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue firefighters are still patrolling and working to put out hot spots from the Chehalem Mountain-Bald Peak Fire.
Despite recent rainy weather, there are still dangerous areas. It can take 1,000 hours of wet conditions to eliminate risk. Level 2 evacuation warnings remain in place.
In the next week, ground crews will be cutting down dangerous trees. If residents see fire burning unattended, they are asked to please call 911.
We appreciate the difficulty neighbors have experienced and will continue to work hard to protect our community.
