Current Situation
Situation Summary
Forward spread of the fire has stopped. Crews will remain at scene mopping up throughout the night. We had two strike teams of engines from CAL FIRE Nevada-Yuba-Placer that responded thanks to our effective mutual aid system. There was a quick response to this fire as it's located about a 20 minute drive from the District Fire, so several resources were routed directly from that fire.
