A New Fire Has Started Near Cameron Peak

A new fire has broken out near Cameron Peak, less than one week after the Cameron Peak Fire reached 100% containment on Wednesday (Dec. 2).

According to the Cameron Peak Fire Facebook page, the blaze, named the Wren Fire, is currently burning around 1/4 acre on private property close to the Cedar Park area.

Visible smoke in the area is diminishing, and crews are working to get a hose line around the flames.

While no cause has been determined, officials say that the Wren Fire is unrelated to the Cameron Peak Fire and not within its perimeter.
