Manage episode 496304871 series 80629
Five years ago regional fire crews were focused on Almeda, so for the first four days, Butte Falls' loggers and truckers and timber fallers fought the Obenchain Fire.

2025 is the five-year anniversary of the Almeda and South Obenchain Fires that devastated much of Jackson County. This year, Butte Falls Volunteer Fire and Rescue will honor first responders and community resilience at the Butte Falls Firemen's BBQ on Saturday, August 9 from 11am to 3pm at the town square in Butte Falls. For more information: Taylor Myers (541) 821-7500 or [email protected].
Joining the Exchange is Jeff Gorman, Butte Falls Fire Chief.

As the Almeda Fire raged in Talent and Phoenix, the South Obenchain Fire raced towards the Town of Butte Falls and Shady Cove. Regional fire crews were focused on Almeda, so for the first four days, Butte Falls' loggers and truckers and timber fallers fought the Obenchain Fire.

Butte Falls is a small, resilient community deep in the Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest. On Saturday, August 9, the town will celebrate the anniversary of the Obenchain Fire at the 2025 annual Butte Falls Volunteer Fire and Rescue BBQ. The Butte Falls volunteer fire crew will be grilling.
