episode_narrativeApparent fire works touched off one of the most expensive fires to affect the state. On June 2nd, a small fire began. It "blew up" on Sunday at around 1030 pm as brisk north winds developed (very unusual for this time of year). Gusty north winds turned to the northeast then southeast during the next several days. The fire burned across 37,330 acres of land...much of it in the Big Lake area where many recreational homes, cabins and businesses are/were located. The fire was named "Miller's Reach", however due to its proximity to the Lake, quickly became known as the "Big Lake" fire. It was finally contained late on Monday, June 10th...after causing an estimated 10 million dollars damage to structures.
