Firefighters are working to gain the upper hand on a fast-moving wildfire that broke out Wednesday in the Cleveland National Forest.
But crews on the ground laying down containment lines and an aerial attack that included aircraft releasing fire retardant and helicopters dropping water helped stop much of the blaze’s forward momentum in the early evening, said Nathan Judy, Cleveland National Forest’s public affairs officer. The fire began at the bottom of a drainage area along the canyon and ran uphill, prompting its rapid spread, Judy said, adding that the cause of the blaze was still under investigation.The Holy Jim hiking area had been closed for rehabilitation following the 2018 Holy fire, which burned more than 20,000 acres.
“It would take a wind shift to put it into populated areas,” he said. The Orange County Fire Authority, which was helping with the blaze, said it was not a threat to Orange County homes.possible rain Friday.
