Ferguson Fire near Yosemite weeks from containment
Published on July 28, 2018 at 11:45PM by By Sarah Ravani
The wildfire threatening Yosemite Valley, which has caused the park to remain closed due to the unhealthy air quality, won’t be fully contained for at least another two weeks, officials said Saturday. The Ferguson Fire, burning in Merced River Canyon, has scorched 49,619 acres — nearly 3,000 acres more than the day before — and was 29 percent contained as of Saturday, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The raging inferno was expected to be fully contained by Aug. 15. The park service had originally hoped to reopen the valley on Sunday, but is instead planning to reopen it on Friday.
