The northern end still had some pockets of scattered heat, but was cooler again last night. has with the previous IR, most of the remaining heat was in Water Canyon, and the Little Colorado. There was still quite a bit of heat along the perimeter south of Greer on the west side of the fire, burning toward 113 and around Burro Mountain. There was also some scattered heat in the Black River Valley, but little perimeter change. The south side of the fire continues to burn south downhill with intense heat, but not for long distances. There is one finger of heat that is running to the east in Steeple Creek that has intense heat. At the confluence of the Blue River and Camble Blue Creek there was a finger of intense heat that appeared to be along road 281.
On the east side, the area around Alpine had cooled off from the previous IR. There was still some scattered heat near Alpine Divide. The burnout operation along 220 moved further west with intense heat. No heat was detected on the east side of the burnout. There was some scattered heat remaining along 275 near the intersection with 851. The area around Nutrioso had some scattered heat on the west side of Escudilla Mtn.

Apache County Sheriffs Office Lifts Evacuation of Springerville, Eagar and South Fork
On Sunday June 12 at 10 am, the Apache County Sheriffs Office, after consulting with fire officials, has lifted the evacuation for the residents of the Springerville, Eagar and South Fork areas.
It has been determined that fire conditions have diminished enough that they will no longer be a threat to the citizens of the towns.
It should be noted, however, that the smoke still poses serious health hazards as has been outlined by Chris Sexton, Apache County Health Director, and the smoke problems may continue for weeks.
Because of the health problems associated with the smoke from the Wallow Fire, Apache County Public Health Services District and the Emergency Operations Center warns residents of Eagar, Springerville and South Fork that it would be best not to return to their homes until the concentration of smoke diminishes.
