Towns Along Pacific Coast Trail Struggle After Dixie Fire

Towns Along Pacific Coast Trail Struggle After Dixie Fire

With a lot of work, the trail has mostly been repaired. But sections of the PCT remain inaccessible, and for the first time in history, doing a continuous hike of the trail from beginning to end is almost impossible.

Reporter Dana Cronin ventured out into a tiny town called Belden, to see how people are doing after the fire.

As part of our Flavor Profile series, Reporter Olivia Zhao brings us the bittersweet story behind Lucy's Gorditas, the latest addition to Fresno's Mexican food scene.
