Three incident management teams have now divided the firefighting command into north, central and south zones. The Whitewater/Baldy Complex fire in 2012 burned 297,845 acres near Silver City.
As of presstime, the US Forest Service mapped the fire at 299,565 acres and about 26% containment, with most of the secured line on the fire’s eastern edge.

While the fastest recent movement for the Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon Fire has swept toward the north, the fire’s southwest flank also made a run over the weekend and sent the communities near Pecos into “set” evacuation status.
