Point Fire


Fire specialists are managing the Point Fire for resource benefits and to reduce catastrophic wildfire danger to the communities of Pine and Strawberry.

The fire is creeping along the forest floor on Milk Ranch Point of the Mogollon Rim.

Crews successfully completed burnout operations. Expect little to no smoke as the fire continues to run it's course - burning with low intensity within its perimeters - until it runs its course or summer monsoons come. Crews will continue to monitor activity.

The closure on Milk Ranch Point will remain in place until further notice.
