Firefighters are aggressively tackling hot spots and strengthening lines. On May 9th, crews patrolled the perimeter and cleared damaged trees around Mesquite Campground. An emergency closure is in effect on Horseshoe Dam Road and nearby motorized trails for safety during operations. The fire started near Horseshoe Lake and spread along Forest Road 205, threatening private land, the dam, power lines, and Verde River resources. Three hotshot crews, hand teams, engines, water tenders, and helicopters are battling the blaze. The cause is under investigation, but with containment holding, the fire is looking manageable.
