The smoke can be seen billowing for miles from the scene, of course, across South Jersey.

Plus, activities at the Mullica River Campground (including kayaking and canoeing) have been suspended.
Roads in the immediate area are closed, including Route 206 from Chew Road to Stokes Road.
Firefighters from Atlantic, Burlington, and Ocean Counties are among those battling the flames.
