The Eagle Creek wildfire burning in the Colombia River Gorge in Oregon that stranded over a hundred hikers spread to Washington on Monday night, causing hundreds of homeowners to evacuate their homes.
According to Katu, the human-caused fire grew from 3,200 acres early Monday to 4,800 acres by the end of the day. Oregon State Police said on Sunday that they believe the fire was man-made, possibly caused by fireworks, and that they had identified a suspect.
According to the news outlet, the fire — which almost 300 firefighters are currently working to contain — is also burning above the iconic Multnomah Falls.
