I know the area! I wonder who started this fire? There’s a lot of dry vegetation there which should have been removed.
We need cameras to be mounted along Hwy 4 — going east and west — to catch idiots who either throw cigarettes out of their cars or people actually walking and setting fires to dry brush. The CALTRANS people should remove the dry brush on a regular basis.
