Incident Update Bridge Fire

Situation Summary

Today, firefighters continued strengthening containment lines and validating their progress, while also attacking the most active northwest and southeast flanks with ground and air resources.

On the northwest flank, firefighters brought the fire’s edge down to tie into road systems today, helping secure containment where rollout of burning material posed a threat to the line. Favorable weather conditions are still allowing firefighters to go direct along the fires edge to prevent further spread toward the Mile High and Paradise Springs communities.

Falling modules and other firefighting personnel are working on the northeast side of the fire, and throughout the Big Pines and Wrightwood communities falling hazardous trees, mopping up, and patrolling both areas.

On the northeast flank, crews are holding containment lines south of Wright Mountain, preventing the fire from progressing into the drainages north of Lytle Creek.

Thanks to the great work of firefighters, public safety personnel and utility companies, an evacuation order was downgraded to a Warning from Icehouse Canyon up to Manker Flats and the Mt. Baldy Ski Resort. Firefighters will still maintain a presence in this area to patrol, monitor, and mop-up.

On the south and west flanks, crews continue holding containment lines and validating that hotspots have been extinguished. Hotshot crews inserted by helicopter earlier this week continue constructing indirect line in the rugged terrain of the Sheep Mountain Wilderness to create secondary containment lines.

Structures threatened: 4,409
