Bad place for a fire. This thing has potential

Not difficult terrain relative to the County fire, so my money is on it being under control at less than 1,000 acres.

Fire has spotted across Willow Creek Rd to the east near Tonzi Rd, crews trying to pick them up. Several outbuildings involved in fire. Area is under mandatory evacs.
