The Washburn Fire covered 2,720 acres and was 22% contained as of Monday night.
OAKHURST – The Washburn Fire burning in Yosemite National Park’s southern edges was caused by a person, officials said.
The fire is burning on the outskirts of the grove, but “overall it’s in a very good place,” said Matt Ahearn, an operations section chief with California Interagency Incident Management Team 13. Ahearn said hand lines and other measures were in place to protect the natural resource. “It’s really the root of the whole national park system — a very important place to us,” Muldoon said.“Currently, the fire is not right up against the community,” Ahearn told concerned residents. “We have crews and fire engines going through the community assessing structures, looking for areas that need to be cleaned up and putting hose lines where appropriate.”Officials also sought to reassure residents they were committed to fully suppressing the blaze.
