Cal Fire assists CalCo in Rancho Calaveras fire

This week we had a structural fire that threatened to spread through an area in Rancho Calaveras that has many larger lots, some of which are undeveloped. Luckily between Calaveras Consolidated firefighters and other fire units providing back up they were able to contain the blaze to a 5 acre area according to reports.
