Fire crews extinguish blaze at resort
A fire broke out this afternoon at Feather River Park Resort in Blairsden and spread to nearby trees and vegetation. Graeagle Fire and the U.S. Forest Service responded, with Graeagle putting out the structure fire and the Forest Service dealing with the vegetation. Due to the quick response, the fire was quickly extinguished. This story has been updated to report that Plumas Eureka Fire also responded and helped extinguish the blaze.
Thank you for your service & quick response.
Was that the main structure or a cabin?
It was the golf cart shed, where the resort stores not only the golf carts, but all of the supplies for the swimming pool, tennis courts and other activities.
Many thanks to all the crews for their quick work! This could have been disastrous — to the wonderful old lodge nearby and to the resort we’ve come to love over 25+ years, just for starters.
