The fire has destroyed only one structure, an abandoned building belonging to the California Department of Parks and Recreation, fire officials said. A parks ranger used to stay in the building years and years ago, Cal Fire fire prevention specialist Pam Temmermand said.
Crews will be putting out hot spots Saturday and Sunday as they have the last 48 hours, Leitzke said.
