OR Fire Crews Battle Eagle Creek Hotspot

(Cascade Locks, OR)  --  Crews are tending to a hotspot at the scene of last year's Eagle Creek fire.  Six months after the blaze was fully contained, authorities responded yesterday morning to an area east of the Herman Creek Trailhead near Cascade Locks.  A Forest Service spokeswoman tells "OregonLive" that embers can stay alive for months, and yesterday's may not be the last one firefighters have to put out.  The hotspot was noticed by someone who saw a glow in the woods.
