Weed, CA - Photos from the last 15 years
Author: RyanWilkerson

I've been taking photos around Weed since I attended COS in 1999, I've always liked the mill complex. Very sad for those that live there and the surrounding area.
Here is a link to all my photos posted from Weed: http://shastarails.com/photos/pbl.asp?location=Weed,%20CA

According to a Roseburg press release, the main processing area and facility were not destroyed, but other buildings on the complex were damaged.

Thanks, I took that photo on a very cold and windy night Dec 28, 2005 for CTC Board's DINA contest. It didn't get printed but I'm glad I went out that night. The plume in the background is from steam in the mill.

Found this aerial photo of the fire damage in Weed. This might help a few people figure out what/where burnt.

Fire perimeter map attached to an article from Tuesday. The burn in town hasn't changed, the line in the wildlands has grown since the map was issued:
