Elephant Fire Still Smoldering | Reno News

The Elephant Fire near Loyalton, California, is officially contained but far from out — still smoldering in rugged, brush-filled terrain where crews can’t always safely reach hotspots. Burning 13,930 acres since July 11, it’s lingering in areas scorched by last year’s Loyalton Fire, with smoke expected for weeks. Temperatures are rising, and firefighters are on high alert, monitoring closely as they work to keep it from reigniting. Cause remains under investigation.
