episode_narrativeThe fires that had been ignited in late July across Eastern Idaho were largely contained and suppressed by July's end, with the 6 remaining fires controlled by Aug 2. These fires, dubbed the Eastern Idaho Complex by the Great Basin Fire Center, consisted of Westfork near Lava Hot Springs, Moonshine and Rattlesnake in the Arbon Valley, Supon near Blackfoot, and Sheep Station and Camas Creek near Dubois. Combined, these 6 fires consumed about 38,000 acres with most of the damage having occurred in July. Another episode of dry lightning on August 17th would trigger over 100 fire starts, most of which were quickly extinguished. However, some grew into major wild fires such as Buckskin near Blackfoot; Camas, close to Hamer, and Green Canyon and Ice in the Sublett Mountains, would combine for a further 20,000 acres burned in August. Generally, these fires burned sagebrush and juniper with some mixed confers. Costs for suppressing these fires have not been estimated, however, no homes, structures or crops were lost or threatened.
