Fire report, 8/2/10

Saturday night there was an illegal campfire on South Coast Ridge Rd. USFS Law Enforcement was dispatched, and gave the offenders a “warning.” I wish they would have given them a ticket, instead.

Sunday afternoon, a wildfire broke out at the summit of HIghway 46 between Paso Robles and Cambria. It was only one and 1/2 acres, and resources were dispatched quickly, including hand crews and a helicopter, and it was knocked down in record time. Turns out, Rock Knocker was one of the first people to pull over after the fire started and is bringing me photos. If any came out, I’ll post them later today. He says the bombers were there before Cal Fire was!

Other areas of the state have not been so lucky, including the Kern County area both near Tehachapi and Kernville, the Palmdale area, Lassen County, and currently, east of Ukiah.

  • You and other residents need to lobby law enforcement to give tickets, reminding them of the nasty fires in recent years.
