Clover Fire Almost Catches Cameraman

Happy Valley resident Darren Smith had a lucky escape when the quick moving Clover Fire almost overran him while he helped residents evacuate on September 9. The fire, which began around midday on September 9, had burnt nearly 8,000 acres by September 12. This video shows just how quickly a wildfire can spread and according to Smith, is intended for educational use. Credit: Darren Smith.
