– On Sunday at 3:52 p.m., the Cal Fire San Benito-Monterey Unit received a notification about a vegetation fire on Vineyard Canyon Road near the intersection of Indian Valley Road east of San Miguel. Initially reported as a grass fire spanning two to three acres on the west side of the road, the fire quickly spread southward due to wind alignment, according to Cal Fire, consuming a total of 355 acres before being contained.
The fire prompted a response from fire crews, with nine aircraft, nine engines, four hand crews, three dozers, one water tender, and five overhead personnel assigned to the incident at its peak.
