Brush Fire North Of La Pine Snarls Traffic

LA PINE, OR -- A fast-moving brush fire fueled by winds and 90-degree temperatures caused traffic delays on Highway 97 north of La Pine, Monday afternoon. Multiple agencies worked together to stop the blaze near milepost 163 that broke out around 2:30 p.m.

BNSF shutdown rail lines so hoses and fire crews could cross tracks. Forestry crews were mopping up the one-acre fire by 3:30.

No injuries were reported and La Pine Fire says the cause has not been determined.
