Big Sur Wildfires Update | Fresno News

Big Sur’s two major wildfires, the Plaskett and Timber Fires, are burning over 55,000 acres combined—with containment at 37% and 27% respectively. Favorable weather is helping crews build control lines in rugged, steep terrain. Highway 1 has partially reopened thanks to progress on the Timber Fire, but a stretch near Kirk Creek remains closed due to the Plaskett Fire. Evacuation orders and warnings still affect many in Monterey and San Luis Obispo counties. Crews are focused on securing containment lines and protecting critical infrastructure, using aerial support to tackle the challenging landscape.
