According to the Sierra National Forest Fire Chief John Goss, the fire was first reported around 4:20 p.m. on Monday.
As of Tuesday morning, the fire was between 15 and 20 acres with the potential to spread to 100 acres.
Chief Goss says the fire is 0% contained and there are seven engines, 20 Hot Shots, two helicopters and two air tankers working to gain control.
According to Chief Goss, the fire is producing a lot of smoke because it is burning in the same location as the French Fire where there is a lot of fuel.
That fire burned for nearly a month and torched more than 13,000 acres.
