Vegetation Fire in Cambria

3:10 pm – 1/4 acre, contained. Fire under investigation.

1:10 pm – Near Tin City – Village Ln. and Burton. Lots of eucalyptus and pine through there. They have a/a, 4-5 Cal Fire eng. as well as the Cambria Eng. hoping they can knock this one back in a hurry. Lots of homes could be in the path, particularly up hill.

Here is a map of the area

This was contained by 3:30 pm and held to 1/4 acre. The cause is under investigation.

  • Just got an email from Kate. She has not been able to get into her blog since yesterday. The fire was contained at 3:30 and was limited to a 1/4 of an acre. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

    • Thanks, Lisa. I should have thought of adding a comment myself! Duh! A blonde moment. What can I say? (Apologies to other blondes, besides Lisa and I)
