The Bridge Fire, which ignited on September 8, has burned 54,795 acres and is now 59% contained after 12 days of active firefighting efforts.
Firefighting operations have involved 120 engines and numerous aerial units, with crews focusing on increasing mop-up depth and securing the fire edge.
In addition to containment efforts, safety measures include removing hazard trees to protect both the public and firefighters in vulnerable areas.
The firefighting response has benefited from favorable weather conditions, specifically a lingering marine layer that has helped maintain humidity levels.
