The Chapleau area's seen another forest fire in recent days.
Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources says "Chapleau 9" was confirmed Monday - about 35 kilometres southeast of Chapleau and six kilometres north of Highway 667 - though it was already classified as "being held" at a hectare in size.
It was one of only three wildfires still burning in the northeast as of Monday evening, along with "Wawa 4" - reported Wednesday, about 1 kilometre west of White River and about 500 metres south of Highway 17 - which is considered "under control" at 1.8 hectares in size.
The fire hazard is mostly high across the Northeast, with pockets of moderate or extreme hazard, including moderate hazard around Sault Ste. Marie.
