Allison Hargett, her husband Tyler, and their 6-year-old daughter Lilly were camping at Detroit Lake State Park with their friends, Tim and Adamma Dye. The Hargett family from Gladstone, outside of Portland, arrived to the campgrounds on Monday with their boat. Allison Hargett told CNN her family loaded in their vehicle with the boat to tow and fled the area as the wildfire loomed. As they entered Mills City, which is also under evacuation orders, their vehicle ran out of gas. The family and their friends safely made it back home, Allison told CNN.
