TA Alert-Tortolita Fire Update #2

The Tortolita Fire is reported at 540 acres. Crews are conducting back burning and building fire lines. The fire is located 4-6 miles northeast of the confluence of the Wild Mustang Trail and Will Burro Trail. See maps below.

Shirley and I hiked the Tortolita Preserve this morning. Appears Tortolita Fire may be getting under control as not much smoke on trail or seen from TP this morning (6-7:30 AM).
