On Wednesday, firefighters managing the Cow Valley Fire called off all evacuation orders in the area in response to the containment.
“After daily briefings with our fire crews that are working the Cow Valley Fire, we have determined that we can lift all evacuation readiness conditions for all areas,” the fire’s incident management team stated Wednesday. “Conditions have improved to the point that we are confident that homes are no longer at risk. Fire crews continue to work in these areas, evaluating and rehabilitating the burned ground.”
