CLEARLAKE, Calif. – A small vegetation fire was reported at Anderson Marsh on Wednesday.


The fire, located on Anderson Marsh’s “North Flat,” was reported shortly before 3:30 p.m., according to radio reports.


Witnesses in the area reported seeing thick black smoke rising from the fire.


Cal Fire and Lake County Fire engines responded to the blaze, which initially was reported to be between three to five acres, although Lake County News received information that it may have reached seven acres in size.


Firefighters accessed the fire from Lakeview Way, according to radio reports.

 

A Cal Fire helicopter that was called was canceled because firefighters on the ground were able to handle the blaze, but radio calls indicated at least one bull dozer was sent in.


Information on the fire’s cause wasn’t immediately available on Wednesday.
