Raw video: Oregon wildfire aftermath
Drone footage captures somber video of an Oregon city impacted by the wildfires burning across the west coast.
The Almeda Fire ripped through Talent, Ore., last week, leaving a surreal path of destruction in its wake as a rash of wildfires continued to plague the West Coast.
Somber drone footage supplied by Reuters shows flattened homes, burned automobiles and a blanket of ash flanking lifeless, empty streets.
And it shows trails of powdery red fire retardant, dropped from aircraft to try and contain the fire, littering the community. Even buildings that survived stood against a gray, smoke-filled backdrop and other devastation.

The Almeda Fire was finally at 100 percent containment as of Tuesday morning, according to authorities.
