The Airport Fire, which started on September 9, has burned over 23,519 acres and is currently 74% contained thanks to the efforts of 1,189 firefighters.
Firefighting efforts include multiple resources such as 47 engines, 34 water tenders, and drones equipped with infrared technology to locate hot spots.
As firefighters work on containment, they are simultaneously removing equipment from the site and constructing waterbars to prevent erosion during potential future rain events.
A closure order for the Trabuco Ranger District indicates the seriousness of the firefighting efforts and the potential risks posed to hikers.
