Central Oregon Wildfires Escalate | Portland News
Description
Central Oregon is in wildfire emergency mode as two massive complexes—the Rowe Creek and Hay Creek Fires—consume over 260,000 acres combined. The Rowe Creek Complex, led by the 132,000-acre Crosswhite Fire (just 16% contained), includes uncontained blazes like the Camel Hump Fire. Meanwhile, the Hay Creek Complex features the 50,000-acre Hoag Fire (80% contained) alongside dangerous, zero-percent-containment fires like Porcupine Ridge and McInnes/456. Evacuations are underway across Gilliam to Jefferson Counties as crews battle to contain these sprawling, fast-moving fires—public safety remains the top priority amid stretched resources.
