The Woods Fire, located approximately 2 miles directly east of the Village of Oak Creek atop Horse Mesa is currently 55 acres and has been completely boxed in by retardant that was dropped by air resources yesterday evening.
Though the fire received moisture from monsoon storms yesterday, which aided in suppression efforts, two Hotshot crews are currently working the fire, with another crew on the way in case they are needed.
