Bridge fire swept through Mountain High, but famed ski resort largely survived

As the Bridge fire swept through mountain communities Tuesday night, Mountain High's webcam showed a dramatic scene: Flames cutting through ski lifts at the well-known ski resort.

'Fire raced through the area yesterday, but all the main lifts and buildings survived with little to no damage,' according to a post from Mountain High. 'Thank you to all the employees and fire fighters for their hard work. Our hearts go out to the Wrightwood families that may be suffering. We are with you!'

The Bridge fire broke out Sunday in Angeles National Forest, with the flames spreading rapidly Tuesday in the northeast area, forest officials reported.

Between Tuesday and early Wednesday, the blaze exploded from 4,000 acres to 47,904 acres, growing more than 10 times in size.
