Another fire is burning inside the same view. Carlton Pass Fire started on Wednesday 22 July, 10.3 miles south-west, and has reached 0 acres. Its heat is counted against it, not against this fire, and the pale ring on the map marks where it is recorded.

Smoke has been recorded lying over this ground four times so far. The thickest of it was moderate between 1:00pm and 4:30pm local time. The last of those windows closed 161 hours ago, so what is overhead now is not known.
