PRESCOTT, AZ (February 11, 2025) – Today fire crews with the assistance of heavy equipment, where feasible, will continue to make access to the portions of the fire’s perimeter and construct line along the fires edge. The assessment of values at risk and protection efforts needed will resume. With forecasted winds, crews will look for opportunities to slow the fires progression to the north. Little growth was reported last night as cooler temperatures moderated fire behavior.
The Brady Fire which started on February 10, 2025, is estimated to be 400 acres and is burning west of Mayer, Arizona near the community of Pine Flats. As dry fuels continue to consume, smoke will be visible from surrounding communities.
For the health and safety of firefighters and residents affected, we ask that you please avoid the area around the Brady Fire. Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office has closed County Road 177 into Pine Flat.
Below normal temperatures are forecast for today as an approaching storm brings 15-25 mph gusty winds out of the southwest. No precipitation is expected today, but there is a chance for snow showers on Wednesday afternoon.
