This afternoon a real rager of a wildfire started and blew up near El Portal on the Groveland District of the Stanislaus National Forest outside Yosemite National Park but is being managed at least initially by the Park. All told, 2100 acres have burned with known structure loss sans specifics.

There is no incident page as of yet to my knowledge!
