The Grouse Fire was corrected to 671 acres as of this morning, instead of the 800 acres reported yesterday evening. However, tonight's reporting from the National Interagency Fire Center shows the fire now at 1,415 acres with zero containment.
The fire was more active today, with a smoke column visible from the Pioneer Scenic Byway and Wise River vicinity. Some minor spotting occurred on the southwest corner of the fire as a result of up-valley winds. Most of the fire activity was on the southeast flank of the fire, with less activity towards the residences on the eastern edge. Acreage remains at 800, as the UAS (drone) mapping flight was unavailable today. Approximately 240 personnel are assigned to the fire.
