Mt. Baldy fire -- 300 acres and growing
11:05 AM, May 14, 2008
The wildfire on Mt. Baldy -- now named the Big Horn fire -- has grown from 30 acres yesterday morning to more than 300 acres today, Francisco Vara-Orta reports. Stiff winds have grounded planes that drop flame retardants, but four of the five water-dropping helicopters on the scene are at work today. More details in the full story.
