Due to windy conditions that have now diminished the fire has also caused smoke to settle in the Alpine area. Visibility is currently between 3-5 miles and could be reduced to 1-1.5 miles.
People with heart or lung disease, older adults and children should avoid prolonged or heavy exertion and should try to remain indoors. Everyone else should reduce prolonged heavy exertion. Please stay tuned to 593 and the hotline 928-333-3412 for updated information.
