The fire as of Sunday morning was estimated at 55,567 acres — up from 53,783 acres on Saturday evening — with 9% containment.
The latest Cal Fire report on Saturday night said the northwest corner of the fire was the most active, and that firefighters would be attacking the blaze aggressively with night-flying helicopters. Firefighters also planned to securing their containment lines to protect Wrightwood, Pinon Hills and other areas.
To the northeast, the report said, firefighters were prioritizing dozer lines and a direct attack wherever possible to stop the fire’s spread.

The map website also lists Los Angeles County agencies offering assistance, including for public works, social services, the tax assessor’s office and public health questions and issues related to the wildfire.
In the past week, the Bridge fire became the largest active wildfire in the state.
The blaze began Sunday afternoon, Sept. 8 near East Fork and Glendora Mountain roads, Angeles National Fire officials said. The fire exploded in size at the end of an protracted heat wave on Tuesday, destroying dozens of structures as it raced into San Bernardino County.
Some 2,453 personnel have joined the firefight, including 50 crews, 203 engines, 21 dozers, seven water tenders and 13 helicopters.
