Although there's a 35,000-acre wildfire burning just three miles away from the bucolic banks of Lake Chelan's northwestern edge, you'd never know it in the small community of Holden Village.
Officials assigned to the Pomas Fire reported that the blaze has now swelled to 3,333 acres and has crept to within only three miles of Holden Village.
