Evacuations ordered as fire grows in Olympic National Park (www.seattletimes.com)

The Mason County sheriff’s office ordered people near Olympic National Park to evacuate as the Bear Gulch fire grows.

The human-caused fire was first reported early this month near the park and has since grown to cover 2 square miles on the northern shores of Lake Cushman. It is less than 10% contained.

Anyone near the Dry Creek Trail, along the lake’s westernmost shores should evacuate immediately, the sheriff’s office said on social media. This is called a Level 3 evacuation order.

Such a shame. The staircase area is (was) beautiful, and probably my favorite part of Olympic National Park. Tons of old growth rainforest is now gone, and the fire won't be out until it snows, according to officials.

Here's a link to the watchduty listing for the fire, has much more info: https://app.watchduty.org/i/54759
