La Brea Fire was a 2009 wildfire which occurred in Southern California in the United States . The fire began near La Brea Creek in Santa Barbara County , in the Los Padres National Forest . The fire burned of chaparral between August 8 and August 22 , 2009 , but only destroyed two structures — a cabin and an unused ranger station . The huge Zaca Fire burned in the same region in 2007 , and some of the same fire lines were used to contain the La Brea Fire
