Spot really took off now

Perimeter of the #ApacheFire, at 9pm, 6/24/2024.

Much of the initial area burned by the fire is on a property that the landowner wanted to burn for habitat improvement. We looked at it with Butte RCD/PBA a couple years ago and told him it might be safer to wait for a wildfire to do it instead…


The fire had spread 1.6 miles by 9pm.
