Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 20 fires within 5 miles of Kehena between 2004 and 2011, burning about 14 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Black Sands
• Kalapana Seaview Estates
