Pine Mountain Lake, CA — Officials with the Rim Fire are advising residents in the Pine Mountain Lake subdivision to evacuate.
Forest Service officials report that the fire has jumped over the containment line. The incident base camp is also in the area.
“It is not an evacuation order, but an advisement,” adds Scott Johnson of the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office. “We are advising people to leave. The evacuation shelter is still located at the Mother Lode Fairgrounds.”
We will pass along more information as it becomes available.
