The Laguna Fire, also known as the Kitchen Creek Fire or the Boulder Oaks Fire, was a 175,425-acre (70,992 ha) wildfire that burned from September 22 to October 4, 1970, in the Laguna Mountains and East County region of San Diego County in Southern California.[1] It was one of many wildfires in a massive conflagration that spanned across the state from September 22 to October 4, 1970.[2] At the time, it was the second-largest fire in the recorded history of California after the 1932 Matilija Fire[1] (not counting the Santiago Canyon Fire in 1889, which experts estimate burned approximately 300,000 acres (120,000 ha)).[3]
