Firefighters battled seven wildfires across California on Thursday, including the fast-moving Dixie Fire, which is burning near the burnscar of the deadly 2018 Camp Fire.
The Dixie Fire, which Cal Fire said has scorched 113,006 acres in Butte and Plumas counties and was 18% contained as of Thursday evening, is burning in a northeast direction on both sides of Highway 70, said Efren Lopez, a defensible space inspector with Cal Fire. Flames were in the areas of Bucks Lake which is on the south end of Highway 70 and in the area of Butt Valley Reservoir, on the northeast side of the highway, Lopez said.
