Cal Fire is gearing up for peak fire season on the heels of a particularly dry and hot spell around the county. Cal Fire Captain Mike Cornette said the Welkview Truck Trail, off Deer Springs Road, is where crews have been making a fuel break over the last several months.
It's one of several fire prevention efforts underway across San Diego County ahead of peak fire season. "I would say the entire county is in fire danger," said Cornette.
