Brandon Rittman shows the map and how crews are bulldozing the forest to keep the Caldor Fire away from South Lake Tahoe.

The Caldor Fire has burned at least 700 homes and other buildings and threatens at least 33,000 others. It has grown to 210,259 acres and is 25% contained. A total of five people have been injured, three firefighters and two residents.

The fire is named the Caldor Fire, after the road where it started on Aug. 14 near the community of Grizzly Flats. That is about 35 miles from Lake Tahoe.
