Crews continue to make progress containing the Black Bear, Clear Creek and Locust Cove #2 Fires burning in the Pisgah National Forest. Containment levels are 90% for the Black Bear and Clear Creek Fires, and 60% for the Locust Cove #2 Fire. Favorable weather and hard work have moved these fires from initial attack to monitor and patrol mode. Our Pisgah NF firefighters have been working alongside crews from across the country. People employed by various agencies from Arizona, Arkansas, California, Montana, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Texas, and more are fighting these fires. Firefighters travel across the country, as regions experience their peak fire season at different times of year. While time away from home is challenging, firefighters take pride in helping their fellow Americans, and get to experience the variety of local cultures.
