Lava Fire
The Lava Fire was a wildfire that burned over of Oregon rangeland during the summer of 2012. The fire began on 23 July 2012, the result of a lightning strike. The fire consumed rangeland vegetation and scrub forest located in and around lava beds in northern Lake County. The burned area was on public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management including a large area within a wilderness study area. Firefighters battled the blaze for over three weeks. At the peak of the firefighting effort, there were over 275 personnel working on the fire. == Origin ==
In late July 2012, a thunderstorm passed over northern Lake County in south central Oregon. A lightning strike from the storm started a wildfire on land administered by the Bureau of Land Management, approximately northeast of Fort Rock, Oregon. The fire was reported in the late morning of 23 July. The bureau named it the Lava Fire.〔("Lava" ), Incident Overview, ''InciWeb Incident Information System'', Lakeview Interagency Fire Center, Lakeview, Oregon, 2 August 2012.〕〔Powers, Alex, ("Lava fire now more than 9,000 acres" ), ''Herald and News'', Klamath Falls, Oregon, 31 July 2012.〕〔("Fire crews on alert as Lava Fire smolders" ), ''KVAL News'', ''www.KVAL.com'', Eugene, Oregon, 26 July 2012.〕〔Terry, Lynne, ("3 New Small Fires in Oregon as Lava Fire Smolders" ), ''The Oregonian/OregonLive'', Portland, Oregon, 1 August 2012.〕 A combination of hot dry weather and gusty winds created dangerous fire conditions in the Fort Rock area. As a result, the creeping fire ignited by the original lightning strike began to burn more actively. Firefighters battled the blaze for the next several weeks as the fire consumed public rangeland and scrub forest in and around remote lava beds on the Lakeview Bureau of Land Management District.〔〔〔〔("Lava Fire" ), ''Flickr'' photo album by ''BLM Oregon'', Bureau of Land Management Oregon and Washington, Portland, Oregon, 30 July 2012.〕
