UTAH COUNTY, Utah — The Cherry Fire continued to grow Friday, with firefighters estimating it at 450 acres in size along the Right Fork of Hobble Creek Canyon during their last update of the evening. U.S. Forest Service officials say the wind was a significant factor throughout the day, as it both fueled the flames and took a toll on firefighting efforts. Davis says those winds largely pushed flames northeast, away from potentially threatened homes along the Left Fork of the canyon. This also comes amid the government shutdown, with both BLM and Forest Service firefighters on scene. Davis added they expect to pull firefighters off the line through the overnight hours, noting the dangers of the steep terrain.
