The skeletal metal tent frames, their coverings and contents reduced to ash, poked out of the landscape. A twisted and blackened fan hung from what was once a ceiling. And everywhere, there were people, clinging to small bags of belongings or setting up makeshift beds on the side of the road, uncertain where to turn next.

Nearly all of the camp was destroyed in the fires, displacing 12,000 residents.
