Overview

• Officials reported 95% containment with the fire holding at about 300 acres and no growth over the previous day.
• The Superior Hiking Trail segment through George H. Crosby Manitou State Park reopens at 8 a.m. Thursday between Caribou Falls State Wayside and County Road 7, and the park remains open.
• Hikers are instructed to stay on the trail in the burn area because many nearby trees are fire‑weakened and could fall.
• Visitors may see ash or smell smoke in the area, which authorities say is expected and not a reason to call 911.
• Firefighters are mopping up smoldering hotspots and monitoring the area, with favorable weather aiding the effort and aircraft available if needed; drone flights would halt air operations.
