Elephant Fire Rages Through Northern California | Sacramento News

The Elephant Fire is still roaring, having scorched over 12,000 acres since it erupted Saturday afternoon near Loyalton—growing from 2,300 acres to a massive blaze in just 48 hours. Firefighters were forced to pause operations Sunday after a drone flew dangerously close to air operations, but crews are back in action. While evacuation orders have been lifted in Lassen County, alerts remain active in parts of Lassen and Plumas Counties. Smoke is drifting into nearby communities including Hallelujah Junction, Bordertown, and Cold Springs—so keep windows shut and stay safe.
