1994 Cottonwood Fire Anniversary

When:
Friday, 16 August 2019

Where:
Sierra Nevada - Sierra County

Description:
On Tuesday, August 16 1994, fire broke out on the Tahoe National Forest at the Cottonwood Campground in Sierra County, CA. This campground is located about 4 miles S.E. of Sierraville on State Route 89 and is about 9 miles S.S.W. (as the crow flies) from Loyalton. Before this fire was finally controlled, it would not only threaten Loyalton and Sierraville but would burn over the north end of the Bald Mountain Range to the outskirts of Border Town, Nevada some 20 miles to the east, blackening over 70 square miles [46,800 acres] of federal, state and private land!
