Firefighters are starting to make progress on a blaze raging in the forests west of Yosemite National Park, the second wildfire in the area this month.
About 10% of the Oak Fire has been contained, but it has already scorched 16,791 acres (6,795 hectares) since it began Friday in Mariposa County east of San Francisco, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said in a statement Monday. While residents in the area were initially ordered to flee, evacuation orders have been lifted.
