Big Sur Fires Make Progress | Fresno News

Big Sur’s wildfire battle is showing progress as the Plaskett Fire, now 61% contained, and the Timber Fire at 27%, inch closer to control. Highway One north of San Luis Obispo has reopened partially, letting visitors return to spots like Salmon Creek Falls. Fire crews have built a full containment line around the steep Plaskett Fire despite tough terrain, while the Timber Fire still flares with heat in dry conditions. Evacuation warnings lifted in San Luis Obispo, but Monterey County residents must stay alert. Cooler weather looms over the weekend, giving crews a chance to strengthen lines and deploy air support — but the fight isn’t over yet.
