Today on the southern perimeter crews will continue securing the line between Mt. Wilson and Highway 2. Defensive strategic firing operations may occur today to slow the growth of the fire. On the northern end of the fire’s perimeter towards Antelope Valley, firefighters are constructing both direct and indirect lines to stop the fire from spreading to the east and west. Both hand and dozer line construction continues on the eastern and western flanks. Throughout the fire, additional work continues on holding and improving the fireline.The Fish/Ranch2 Burn scar above Duarte is still showing little to no movement. Due to the steep terrain and limited resources available, Fire Fighters are having difficulty putting containment on the area, however with little to no growth it's only a matter of time before containment is reached. Yesterday afternoon the fire west of Mt. Wilson had winds, which caused the fire to make a northerly push towards Highway 2 burning approximately 2,500 to 3000 acres in one hour. Fortunately Firefighters were able to keep this in check. Residents from Duarte likely saw these columns of smoke to the North West. The north end towards the Antelope Valley continued to grow to both the west and east. The fire remains relatively quiet along the Highway 39 corridor and along the south side.

American Sign Language interpreters will be live-signing.
