"The Indians Fire" Monterey County, California

Posted by MontereyJohn (Salinas, California, United States) on 19 June 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This huge fire, 33,000 acres as of yesterday, is burning in Monterey County on California's Central Coast about 30 miles south of Salinas. When I was down there yesterday it looked as though the fire had been contained from spreading further north at the Arroyo Seco, a small river valley the empties into the Salinas Valley. They had set a back fire while the winds prevailed from the north and the two fires had merged giving rise to hopes the fire would then burn itself out. Let's hope they are right.

Thanks for dropping by and sharing in the joy I take in this art of photography. Enjoy your visit, and if you have any comments or useful criticisms, please feel free to share them.
