| Date: | Wednesday August 13, 2014 | |
| Time: | 12:00 pm - 12:00 pm (GMT-08.00) Pacific Time (US & Canada) | |
| Location: | Los Angeles County - Angeles National Forest | |
| Notes: | On this date in 1997 in the San Gabriel Mountains behind Glendora a hiker having just used a primitive latrine believed the most sanitary and environmentally-friendly course of action was to burn their wipes. The ensuing fire burned up and over the San Gabriel Mountains jumping Highway 2 at one point and consuming 18,186 acres. Some local wags christened the incident the "Charmin Fire". | |
