Fire In Salmon Creek

Smoke from fire near the top of Salmon Creek

A lightning strike this morning started a small fire just below the ridge at Twin Ponds. Spotted by local resident David Booth, the bolt had ignited a small knoll. Fire crews already stretched thin by outbreaks in other areas left the flames to our local fire department.  Salmon Creek volunteers quickly responded and by 9 the smoldering remains were  being mopped up.

The lightning was gorgeous but it left such a path of destruction. I’m sending positive thoughts to all local land owner affected and our wonderful fire fighters.

Fire season is definitely upon us, unfortunately. Bless all firefighters!
