The fire off Highway 530 started at about 6 p.m. Thursday. It is about six miles from the area that was wiped out by a massive landslide in 2014.
According to fire officials, there was a logging operation earlier in the day that may have started the fire. They said the cause is under investigation, but the area has been logged for about a month and the line of fire followed the path where logs were being dragged up the hill.
