Moore Wildfire Update, June 25, 2015

MIMBRES, NM; June 25, 2015 –There was minimal growth on the 4,000-acre Moore Fire in the Gila Wilderness on the Wilderness Ranger District Wednesday. Due to increased humidity and scattered rain showers over the fire, observed fire behavior was smoldering and creeping along the ground through grass and brush. The most active parts of the fire were within scattered pine stringers throughout the management area. Minimal growth occurred along the northeast perimeter near Tom Moore Canyon. The Moore Fire was not aerially mapped on Tuesday as there was active lightning over the fire area late afternoon.
