The fire was first reported shortly before 3:30 p.m. off of Highway 20 near the Oasis roadhouse.
Radio reports indicated that dispatchers received numerous cell phone reports of the fire in different locations, but Northshore Fire Deputy Chief Pat Brown said there was just one fire that was located in Colusa County.
He said it was located off the roadway, and measured about 100 feet by 100 feet in size.
Williams Fire sent two engines and a water tender, Northshore Fire Protection District sent three engines and a water tender, and Cal Fire responded with a hand crew, said Brown.
He said the first engine on scene – from Northshore Fire’s Spring Valley station – put the fire out within about 10 minutes.
Brown said Cal Fire is trying to determine the fire’s cause.
