742 hectares (estimated size), growth is expected once a track is possible. Strong winds and steep unworkable terrain have made sections of this fire challenging to fight with direct attack strategies.

July 19 was the most challenging day for this fire as strong winds, steep terrain, and increasingly dry fuels drove aggressive fire behaviour and created four spot fires. One of those fires grew too quickly for crews or aviation resources to contain it and it has now spread into the South Lemon Creek drainage.
