Firefighters battling the Ross Fire are receiving support from aerial crews and community volunteers. Bridger Aerospace has dropped over 350,000 gallons of water on the fire to help cool the flames. This allows ground crews to move in and work on containing the fire. Aircraft are scooping water from a lake and making continuous cycles over the fire.

The aerial support is crucial in helping to contain the fire, with more than 40% still uncontained. Further details on the efforts to combat the Ross Fire are available.

Aerial crews continue to fly and drop water on the fire, with ground crews working to fully contain it.
