The Rock Fire rages through the John Muir Wilderness, now burning over 11,600 acres and just 18% contained as it pushes into the High Sierra. With steep, rugged terrain slowing ground efforts, crews rely on helicopters and air tankers to fight the blaze — even within the protected wilderness, where full suppression is authorized. Erratic fire behavior, fueled by shifting winds and stubbornly dry conditions, forces rapid response. Trailheads for thru-hikers are closed, and evacuations remain in place as firefighters battle high heat and low humidity to build containment lines before the fire reaches more communities.
