At a news conference Monday morning, fire officials said a total of five homes associated with the Bear Divide Ranger Station had been lost.
One of the firefighters had also previously lost his home in 2009 on the Station fire, Chief Robert Garcia, a forest fire management officer for Angeles National Forest said, so he has lost his home twice. "That's not very common for sure," Garcia said
