UPDATE 7/25/23, 1:00pm: Fire crews at the scene of the Goldrun wildfire have reported that the fire is 100% contained.
Focus will now turn to mopping up hot spots, monitor and repair areas impacted by the fire and crews will be adjusted accordingly.
Officials plan to patrol and monitor the area for the remainder of the summer to ensure that any lingering smoke is from sources located well within containment lines.
Holbrook Lane remains closed for public safety, and expected to remain closed until work is completed.
The area is still considered dangerous and crews request that no one enter the burned areas, which contain hot ash pits that can disintegrate quickly, as well as the risk of trees falling due to weakened root systems and trunks.
The wildfire burned grass and timber in a 799 acre area.
Fire crews dispatched just after 6:30 pm on July 18 were equipped with fire engines, a dozer from the Bureau of Land Management, hand crews from the Forest Service, and another engine and fire crews from the Idaho Department of Lands.
The fire is believed to be human-caused with an investigation ensuing. No other details have been made available regarding the cause of the fire.
Authorities are reminding the public to recreate responsibly as fire season continues.
