After seeing the maps today, a better question might be who isn’t near one.
Not near there, but one of our local Forest Service firefighters, David Ruhl, died fighting the fire on Thursday. Very sad. He was a great guy and friend of my husband, who is a retired Forest Service firefighter.
They’re west of the Hudson, and therefore don’t exist.

Does this help you?
Fires, when started, grow rapidly. Some are from dry lightning, some are arson. There's thousands of acres of dead timber due to drought and pine beetles.
It will be a long summer.
It is a safe bet that many seeps and springs that haven’t dried up, are being dammed and diverted to the dope growers plots. Many of the fires are started by cook fires that got away from the dope grower, many times they are illegals camping out there and tending the crop. Just starting the fires and growing the dope Americans refuse to do.
I live in Clearlake. The Rocky Fire started in an area that hasn’t seen wildfire in years and was basically overdue. Lots of dense brush just waiting for a spark. It’s nature. It’s what happens. That said, they don’t know how the fire started yet,
My in-laws are in Placer County.
