episode_narrativeThe South Fork Fire fire began on August 13, 2017, 1 mile east of Wawona along the south fork of the Merced river in Yosemite National Park. The fire closed several trails in the southern part of Yosemite. Thunderstorms downdrafts caused the fire to spread west and threaten the community of Wawona, which was evacuated for 6 days from August 19th to the 24th. Firefighters were able to contain the fire on the south and west side of the fire by August 26th, but the fire was being allowed to burn to the east. Containment was 44 percent by the end of August. Thereafter, the fire was being managed as it moved into rockier terrain in the wilderness of Yosemite. The fire will likely continue into October.
