Sunday Wildfire In Big Basin Redwoods State Park Kicks Off Another Potentially Horrible Fire Season
Windy and dry conditions over the weekend led to a very early Red Flag Warning being called in the North Bay, and two small brush fires around the Bay Area. But a slightly more significant fire that actually got named broke out on Sunday in the CZU Lightning Complex burn zone, inside Big Basin Redwoods State Park.
Dubbed the Basin Fire, the wildfire began shortly after noon on Sunday, and by 2 p.m. Cal Fire CZU said that it was being kept at under an acre. But as the Chronicle reports, the fire continued to grow before it was fully contained Sunday night, and scorched a total of seven acres in the area of Hihn Hammond Truck Trail, in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

Fire crews on Sunday battled a blaze in Big Basin Redwoods State Park in Santa Cruz County within the burn area of the CZU Lightning Complex, which charred 86,000 acres last year, fire officials said.
The Basin Fire had burned about 2 acres on Hihn Hammond Truck Trail in the Santa Cruz Mountains as of Sunday afternoon, according to Cal Fire. A helicopter made water drops, and crews were dispatched at 12:11 p.m.
