The Slink Fire enters Little Antelope Valley above Coleville, California.
The Slink Fire left Slinkard Valley yesterday and came over the hills to burn above the towns of Coleville and Walker last night. It was listed as 6500 acres and 5% contained.
As I drove away, the brightest spot in the panorama above turned into a fire tornado at least two to three hundred feet tall. A pillar of flame. I’ve seen smaller ones, but nothing like that.
Here are some photos and a time-lapse video of the Slink Fire Sunday night August 30, reported as 5% contained and 4762-acres.
As of the morning of September 5, the Slink Fire is reported as having burned 18,665 acres, with 15% containment.
Sadly, the historic Golden Gate Mill near Walker is reported to have burned:
