Item Description
A contractor for the National Forest Service was using a ground clearing machine and sparked a fire near the Stampede Reservoir on Thursday, August 4, 1994. Within six hours, the blaze spread to the east, endangering the town of Verdi along the California-Nevada border. This fire, named the Crystal Peak Fire, burned over 6,000 acres, destroyed three homes, and cost in excess of seven million dollars to fight. This view looks to the northwest along the Truckee River corridor toward Verdi when the fire was most dangerous.
