The head of the main fire has hit the 2017 Mariposa Grove rx burn and the spots are within the perimeter but it looks it’s starting to move around it to the west.

Here are some maps of prescribed burns in the immediate vicinity of the Washburn Fire.
Mariposa Grove is yellow outline. Mapping is incomplete, doesn’t show earlier burns, and may be missing more current ones.

Intel 24 just arrived over the fire. We should soon have a new size and perimeter. It will be interesting to see how many spots and how far away.
