New Fire Near Benbow Vinyard

According to scanner traffic, a new fire has erupted on near the intersection of Tooby Ranch Road  and east Branch Road off of Benbow. One firefighter called it “the back side of Reed Mountain near where the fire was the other day.” The crews on the ground have called for air support but so far none has been able to be freed up.

Terri Klemetson at KMUD has this:

This just in from the scanner. The fire is a 1/2 acre. A local person on a dozer is helping. Firefighters are making good progress .

UPDATE 3:26 p.m.: Lat and long given on the scanner show where firefighters thought the Benbow fire is located. Correction: Our error. There is a fire here but it is not the one referenced.

Hi Kym, my brother said he saw a bunch of engines leaving Alderpoint. Does that mean they have clocksburg under control. Thanks for your fine work my sister

The lat/long must be incorrect on the map above. It is nowhere near benbow. Also, Tooby Ranch Road and East Branch do not intersect each other. If you can verify the location, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, these roads intersect on the Kinsey Ranch, beyond the locked gate at the end of the road. That’s Ralph Johnson of JKR Ranches on the dozer. Bless him!

Hi kym do you know if the local volunteer fire dept stations are taking meal donations for the fire fighting folks? I may have just missed that info in these articles. Thank you so very much for all you do.

Pay it Forward Humboldt on Face Book is getting it done. Give Back is part of the name I guess. I am not to familiar with the Facebook scene. None the less they have it going on.
