Fuel break separates Jamacha fire from community

The fuel break maintained by the US Fish & Wildlife Service is easily seen between the burned area and the community. One home with wood shingle roofing was damaged by air-borne fire embers. The home was saved by the firefighters but the other 928 homes in the area did not catch fire due to the successful fuel break and less flammable building materials.
