Tollhouse Series 6

This picture is of the wild fire of 1931 that burned up the first Tollhouse Church as well as several thousand acres of foothills and timber. The fire was started by a local rancher burning brush in August and it burned over Burrough Mountain into Blue Canyon in the south and into Jose Basin in the north. Tollhouse was spared as the fire burned around it on both sides. Most of Tollhouse Peak's surviving timber was destroyed. The church is visible in the smoke line in the center right.
