Forward Progress Of Point Fire Burning In Calaveras County Stopped

WEST POINT (CBS13) – The Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office is evacuating an area of West Point because of an early morning fire.
Right now, Cal Fire says the Point Fire has burned about 130 acres in timber. It ignited near Highway 26 and Higdon Road in an area heavily impacted by tree mortality.
That’s where strong winds knocked down several dead trees – at one point – making it difficult for crews to get to the flames.
