Smoke from Oregon Fires - Aug 2002

At the Oregon-California state line, an immense wildfire that resulted from the combination of two separate blazes, has now burned over 375,000 acres and is still growing. The Biscuit Fire, formerly the Florence Fire and the Sour Biscuit Fire, was sparked by lightning in the Klamath Mountains in Oregon and has burned over the state line into California. The columns of smoke billowing from the fire reach far south down the Pacific Coast.
