Another Wildland Fire on Orcas!
Aaron Patten was in a boat on his way back from Blakely Island when he noticed a lot of smoke on Deer Point. He quickly docked and found the source. It was a hillside on fire, just below a home. The fire spread 100 feet up the hillside to the base of the home, contacting it in 3 different places. Thanks to a concrete foundation and good wildland clean up, the fire did not ignite the siding.
