“We came out of a pretty good winter with good rain, but good rain brings a bunch of growth for the spring.”
“This is just the beginning of what we need to get going here” one tribal member said of partnering with the Tribal EcoRestoration Alliance (TERA).
Cal Fire says their goal is to “reintroduce fire as a natural element of the ecosystem” and improve wildlife habitat.
Cal Fire is reporting 30 residences and 16 other buildings destroyed, and four residences and one other building damaged by the blaze.
The fire started just before 2:30 p.m. and is estimated at roughly 5 acres burning in the Pine Mountain area of Geyser’s Road.
