By the time it was extinguished, it had burned about {{convert|178000|acre|km2|0}}[1] in the Santa Lucia Mountains, known as the Ventana Wilderness, making it the largest wildfire in recorded California history at that time. The fire burned 90% of the vegetation cover in the upper Big Sur River watershed. This posed the threat of serious flooding in the Big Sur River Valley, where a much smaller August 1972 fire had led to severe flooding later that year. This time, the rains were moderate and resulted in no major flooding problems.[2] References1. ^"Sequential Changes in Bed Habitat Conditions in the Upper Carmel River Following the Marble-Cone Fire of August, 1977", California Digital Library 2. ^Lussier, Tommie Kay, Big Sur: A Complete History and Guide, {{ISBN|0-935766-27-8}} External links
