The containment for the Mosquito Fire burning in Placer and El Dorado counties continues to hold steady despite challenging fire conditions earlier in the week.
Residents of the town of Foresthill in Placer County can begin returning home as evacuation orders were downgraded to warnings for the Mosquito Fire, officials said Monday afternoon.
Flames from the Mosquito Fire moved dangerously close to the community of Foresthill in Placer County after a spot fire jumped the Middle Fork of the American River, officials said.
