Wildfire Service is patrolling residential areas near McKinney Road, Nk Mip Road, Shrike Hill and south around Anarchist Mountain on Aug. 3, while fire guards are built at the northeast and southeast flanks. The wildfire service will also survey the area around Mount Baldy Ski Resort and McKinney Nordic Ski Club for potential planned ignitions. The Nk Mip wildfire was first discovered on July 19 and remains out of control. While it was mapped at 13,000 hectares as recently as Aug. 2, several days of heavy smoke hampered the wildfire service from providing any new estimates.
