Looks like it headed east on Main St. (numbered lakes to Insula and beyond).

We were on Kawasachong and Square Lake for four days last week (Monday through Thursday) and exited on Kawishiwi on Friday night and Saturday.  We watched the smoke plume on Friday night at sunset and didn't realize that by Monday the lakes we had been camping on would be burned over.

It's been a much bigger fire than anticipated, I think.  It is very dry up there.  We were amazed that there wasn't a fire ban.

On the Pagami Creek fire:
Quote:
“I think it’s an important part of this fire story that people know it didn’t all burn, that it’s not all black but a lot of green interspersed,” Van Every said. “But we won’t know until next year how people will react.”
