The entire Pasayten Wilderness has been closed due to the
Tripod and Tatoosh WildfiresThe Tripod Fire is aggressively burning the eastern portion of the Wilderness in the Horseshoe Basin, and reached the Chewuch and Tungsten Rivers on September 4th. The Tatoosh Fire is burning the western portion of the Wilderness, in the Pasayten River and Lost River drainages. Extreme fire behavior is pushing the fire towards the Pacific Crest Trail, and farther into Canada.

I live 1/2 mile away on the same street but missed all the commotion this morning. Sad that there was a casualty.
1 FaverQuoted: The news about this morning's fire just got grimmer: the P-I reports an elderly man, the last tenant of the apartment building scheduled for destruction, has died before he could even make it to the hospital. The man, in his 80s, was supposed to move out today or face eviction. KING 5 has video of the fire, and a quote from Dennis Saxman, development gadfly, about the victim: "He was having a hard time letting go."
