Now there's a fire that popped up on the North Arm of Burntside Lake…

Geez…

Not good.

As of now about 2 acres in size. The location is more in the North Arm Road and Echo trail area. Forest Service was dropping water on it.

I believe this fire is right where the ski trails are located. To the east and South of Slim Lake, I believe.

Thank you for posting.

This fire has been knocked down to less than 1 acre and is being mopped up.
