Cold Fire - Winters, CA

8/2/2016

1 Comment

 
The wildland west of Winters just can't seem to get a break. This afternoon around 4:30pm, a fire broke out east of Lake Beryessa, heading east, and by later this evening, northeast. As of early this evening, The Golden Bear community is under evacuation orders, and the fire has grown from 200 acres late this afternoon to 1,700 acres by 9:00pm this evening.

I drove down highway 128 and into to the Golden Bear community. Here are some of those shots.

Great images - cool website, too!

That area can't seem to catch a break in recent years; 1700+-acre Cold Fire in 2016, 8051-acre Wragg Fire in 2015, 6488-acre Monticello Fire in 2014, et al.
