Nearly 12,000 acres have burned, and several structures were destroyed in the historic gold rush town of Chinese Camp after the 6-5 Fire, which is part of the TCU September Lightning Complex, a series of at least nine fires that were sparked by lightning. The TCU Lightning Complex is currently zero percent contained. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The fire complex includes eight smaller blazes that cropped up Tuesday after an intense lightning storm passed through the area with more than 9,000 lightning strikes throughout the early morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two blazes — the 6-5 Fire in Tuolumne County and the 2-7 Fire in Calaveras County — have prompted evacuation orders, and an additional half dozen zones in both fires’ paths are under warnings.

The region is also laden with very dry tall grasses, brush and timber fuels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said crews have to hike to reach the fires in many places and are attacking the flames indirectly. Firefighters are forming firebreaks and contingency lines that aim to stop forward progress of the fires, Davis said, but because of the conditions, they are having to do so farther from the current fire boundaries, leaving some vegetation between to burn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozers and other equipment needed to cover the rural landscape were on the way Wednesday morning, according to Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re still getting our feet under us and getting those resources coming,” she said. “It’s just a matter of getting people here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 630 personnel are fighting the fires from the ground and air, according to Cal Fire, and the agency’s Type 1 Incident Management Team 6 is expected to take over command of the incident on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday, Gov.
