Lake Tahoe Wildfire
I am in South Lake Tahoe for the summer. It's 10pm now. A forest fire broke out mid-afternoon and is burning out of control, with over 50 homes already destroyed. I'm going to hike up the ridge behind our cabin and take some night pictures of the flames in the distance. Fire is still about 10 miles away but winds are blowing it towards southeast part of town, near the airport and highschool. This is already very bad. News later.

Nightime pics of the fire moving over the ridge into town. I saw about 4-5 houses burst into flame from this vantage.

Pics from earlier in the day, shortly after the fire broke out. These are from a different vantage point than the nighttime photos above:

Re: Lake Tahoe Wildfire
Dang...165 homes, horrible, it is amazing how fast these can burn,to watch a fire like this in person is really scary.
grab the cats and the wife and head out if it gets close! Bud.

Re: Lake Tahoe Wildfire
Another hot, dry California summer begins. Funny how these fires start almost by clockwork. Perhaps someone tossed a butt out their window on highway 50? Good luck Denis.
