Another wild fire breaks out in Southern Oregon. The Ramsey Canyon wildland fire is a fast moving 1500 acre wild fire burning in very rugged terrain complicated by gusting winds and difficult access. Helicopter firefighting operations are operating out of a local ranch / private airport.

This wildland fire is burning south of the Garner Fire Complex around Hull Mountain near Ramsey Road and East Evans Creek Road near Sams Valley in Jackson County located in Southwest Oregon. The cause of the fire is listed as “human caused” on Inciweb.

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown declared the Ramsey Canyon fire, burning near Sams Valley in Jackson County, a conflagration Thursday, clearing the way for the state fire marshal to mobilize firefighters and equipment to assist local resources battling the fire.

The Ramsey Canyon wildland fire is burning on the anniversary date and in the same location as the 1994 Hull Mountain fire which reached 7,990 acres and claimed one life before it was contained.
