Wildfire Invasion

The fire started on the neighbor’s about 2:00 p.m.

Blading a road for 4×4 engines on the west flank at 7:10 p.m..

Last phos-chek dropped at 8:00 p.m. on our place. Hand crews and air support, planes and helicopters, kept the fire contained.

Coming off the mountain at 10:00 p.m. Dead Blue Oaks, as a result of the four-year drought, burning.

CalFire Incident: “Creek Fire”, 600 acres.

    Sorry to read this. We had a forest fire near our cabin in Wyoming some years ago and it wasn’t an enjoyable experience. On the positive side, only one structure on another part of the mountain burned, so that was good. The forest has been regrowing since.
