The Timber Fire in Big Sur rages into its third week, burning over 6,100 acres with just 29% contained. Firefighters battle hardest on the eastern flank, racing to stop the blaze from reaching the South Fork of the Big Sur River. Water drops and retardant are being deployed while crews build defensive lines north and south. Highway 1 remains closed between Mile Marker 42.6 and 37 due to rockfalls and unstable terrain, with officials working to reopen it. Evacuation orders hold for zones MRY-F027-B and MRY-F028-A, while others remain under warning. The shelter at Carmel Middle School has shut down. Investigators continue probing the fire’s origin as safety remains the top priority.
