EAGLE — Fire officials don’t expect the Sylvan Fire to expand past the 3,972 acres — nearly 6 square miles — of the burn area south of Eagle. But inside the fire’s perimeter, there is the expectation that there will be more fire activity as the area continues to dry out.
“There’s still quite s bit of fuel out there,” said Kelsha Anderson, a spokesperson with the White River National Forest.
The fire remains at 68% contained, and Anderson said it will take some time before those containment figures come up as firefighters continue to monitor the activity inside the fire lines.
