MENDOCINO Co., 6/13/21 — A small wildfire is burning in a wooded area east of Potter Valley near the county line with Lake County. Cal Fire and the Potter Valley Volunteer Fire Department have responded, along with a significant commitment of air resources, including multiple tankers and a helicopter. However, ground resources are still making their way towards the fire, and trying to find a good access point.
The fire is burning near the top of Mid-Mountain Road, and possibly just over the line into the National Forest. The fire is reported to have a slow rate of spread, and was last reported to around 3 acres.

Maybe it’s the squatters growing ganja by the Eel river right there, that have been reported to all authorities, for months, and… are still there building a makeshift home.

Those “squatters ” you claim to know about are actually the OWNERS of the 255 acres above the local swimming spot known as Hippie Rock.
It’s always best to get your facts straight before you go shooting your mouth off
