Evacuation orders issued for trails at Mt. Baldy amid fast-moving wildfire
Evacuation orders have been issued for the Mt. Baldy Ski resort as firefighters battle fast-moving wildfire burning in steep terrain, authorities announced.
“Mt. Baldy Ski Resort Lift#1 is open to for hikers to assist in evacuation,” SBSC fire officials said in a post to X, formerly Twitter. “There are NO evacuations orders or warnings for the community of Mt. Baldy.”
The “Vista Fire,” which was burning just northwest of Lytle Creek, was first reported at around 10 a.m., with crews from the San Bernadino County Department assisting crews from the San Bernardino National Forest Service.
At that time, fire officials said the blaze, which was not threatening homes, was at 9 acres.
In an update just before 3 p.m. by officials at Cal Fire, the wildfire had grown to some 100 acres.
Officials said that more than 250 firefighting personnel have been assigned to the Vista Fire. So far, there have been no reports of any injuries.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
