GUINDA, Calif. (AP) -- A wildland blaze fueled by dry brush and steady winds grew to 25,000 acres Tuesday in a region north of San Francisco.
The Rumsey fire was just 5 percent contained as it burned through oak trees, brush and dry grass in a steep and remote region of Napa and Yolo counties.
``The access is still very difficult,'' said Kaaren Stasko, a fire information officer with the California Department of Forestry. ``We're dealing with extreme fuel. There's lots of growth.''
No structures were threatened by the blaze, which began Sunday evening near farmland in Yolo County. More than 750 firefighters were battling the fire.
