Evacuations to be reduced for Pocket Fire; Rock Canyon and Dellenbaugh fires increase containment

While the Pocket Fire remained at 0% containment and has burned 320 acres north of Sedona, according to an update by the Southwest Area Complex Incident Management Team 2 on Monday, the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office will reduce the evacuation status for Oak Creek Canyon from Go to Set at 8 a.m. on Tuesday.

The modification applies to residents only and proof of residency will be needed for entry into the area. Highway 89A and Oak Creek Canyon will remain closed to the public and for through traffic.
