Los Angeles County and United States Forest Service
Firefighters worked to quickly extinguish a fast moving brush fire today in the
Hasley Canyon area of northern Los Angeles County. The fire broke out late this
afternoon in area that looks like it has been used for target shooting at the
dead end of Burlwood drive. Air and ground crews were able to halt the fire and
beat back flames as it crested the ridge top on a steep south facing slope
lined with dense brush. An armada of helicopters and fixed wing super scoopers
dropped thousands of gallons of water from the air which helped to quell the
flames before the fire could become a major inferno.
