Here are updated maps using data from National Interagency Fire Center public GIS data site and IR from NIFC FTP site. NIFC GIS site is a great resource, check it out. https://data-nifc.opendata.arcgis.com/
The orange area is last night’s perimeter at 6pm. Dark red from this afternoon. Bright red/yellow from 5:20 pm.
Not much spread in past 24 hours on south or SE side of fire. Fire backed actively toward Bear Valley on east flank and toward Shasta Lake on north. A pretty good run happened this evening on north flank of Bear Mtn, and fire was hot along powerline corridor near I-5 at 5:20pm.

Was on the lake in Cove Creek this evening, just west of Silverthorn. Surface winds out of the north breathing with the fire and keeping air clean below the column, south winds were much higher up and keeping column low and slight NE past sundown.
Good backing ground fire all along the south shore. It got into a few dead snags but hopefully along the shore the timber between Alie and Cove Crk is intact. Can’t say the same for Bear Mtn. It roared up the NW ridge all evening, and down below on the NW base. Massive group torching and brush runs.
Could hear heavy equipment working to the east near the marina and I believe working on a line off the lookout road down into either Jones Valley or Silverthorn area to give those areas a chance.
Iphone pics don’t do it justice. One of the hotter backing fires, and then some big heat on Bear Mtn. Will check the big camera tomorrow.

Last night “T” was fired to the lake, and with the mild weather the next couple days it should be wrapped up. My crystal ball says 5 - 6 days of mop up then mass demob
