La Jolla Indian Reservation, A family friend looks at the remnants of Viola Peck's house, a tribal elder. Her home was destroyed by the Southern California wildfire. The fires burned 92% of the La Jolla Reservation land. This is the site of a joint FEMA/BAER (Burned Area Emergency Response) press conference on the actions being taken by both groups to mitigate further damage and erosion by the winter rains.
