Twenty to 25 acres of grassland burned Wednesday night in a canyon near Cedar Bluff Reservoir. Rural Fire Chief Larry Eberly says the fire was started by an electrical cord coming out of a camper at the Dream Camp. The fire, which ignited around 9pm, came to within ten feet of the camp but did not damage any structures.
Eberly issued a warning that with the dry conditions, people need to take extra precautions this 4th of July holiday.
