In late Aug/early Sept we were on heading East through the Colombia River gorge and suddenly hit a traffic jam. About 10-15 cars ahead of us in the W/B lane a 5er had caught fire. For what I could see it looked like the drivers side tires were burning and we could do nothing but sit in traffic and watch it burn to the frame. Embers from the fire blew over the freeway and started a brush fire on the hillside which started moving up and towards us. Again nothing we could do but spectate and pack up the essentials just in case.
Then fire crews arrived on scene....took quite a bit of time, their focus was on the brush fire which were now on both side of the freeway.
Reckon we sat there for over an hour. We did offer toilet facilities and bottled water to some women and children....men and boys to the side of the road.
