Valley County issues Go evacuation order for zones 4 and 5 as Boulder Fire grows
Valley County, ID (CBS2) — The Valley County Sheriff’s Office has issued a Go evacuation order for residents in the path of the Boulder Fire.
All residents in zones 4 and 5 were sent a code RED or Go evacuation message. Deputies are working to notify residents as well.
The Sheriff’s office said there will be roadblocks in place at some point and that the evacuation order is evolving rapidly due to the winds and heat.
Evacuees can park vehicles and campers at the Cascade Fire Department. The Valley County Fairgrounds are open for animals, and the Cascade Community Church has opened its doors.
Those needing lodging, food, or gas who have been displaced can seek assistance from the Cascade Fire Community Fund. Poison Creek Boat Ramp, Buttercup Boat Ramp, Sugarloaf, Van Wyck Campgrounds, and Blue Heron Boat Ramp area campgrounds are available for campers and trailers.
