Looks like it wasn't a full evacuation after all. I see at least one resident stayed.

The latest combo map from Granof8's web site is below. The official Floristry Circus Site has not updated their map since Monday, 12 August. That map was from the size of the fire on Sunday, 11 August. It is like they don't want people to realize that the fire is growing in size and has basically consumed the Former Kalmiopsis Wildnerness Area.

This latest satellite map confirms that the fire has been burning to the North as per Granof 8's report this morning and Wanderin's photos last night.:
