The Fires in San Mateo County, August 2020

The CZU Lightning Strike Cluster Fire in San Mateo and Santa Cruz counties has definitely affected Pescadero Creek County Park. Some early maps showed early lightning strikes along the Butano Ridge Fire Road. While we have no way of knowing the precise damage now, nor when we will be able to get back and continue documenting the life of the park, we can be glad of all the documentation we've already done - especially for such a large and remote park. This provides a baseline, for us as individuals and maybe even for the county parks, as we all observe how the forests respond to this event.

Please, stay safe and secure. Don't interfere or interrupt the first responders.
