    The Durkee Fire, which spread rapidly to the south and southeast on Friday, July 19, has spotted north across the Burnt River, prompting the Baker County Sheriff's Office to expand the level 2 evacuation level — be set to leave — to an area extending north to Interstate 84 near the Pleasant Valley exit.

    The Level 3 — leave now — evacuation notice area has been expanded to include areas along the Burnt River Canyon Road near where it enters the Durkee Valley. The town of Durkee does not have an evacuation notice in place.
