The fire burning in the San Jacinto Mountains, above Palm Springs, has closed the Pacific Crest Trail.

It was among a list of trail and campground closures announced Thursday, the second day of the Cranston Fire. The mountainous area rising above the desert is a recreation hub, with many tourist facilities in the San Bernardino National Forest and Mt. San Jacinto State Park.

The Pacific Crest Trail, which runs from Mexico to Canada, passes along the east edge of the fire zone. Northbound hikers are being asked to leave the trail at Highway 74. The next road that the trail crosses is Interstate 10, a 55-mile walk to the north.

The town of Idyllwild, which has been evacuated, is a popular town stop for long-distance PCT hikers, many of whom count on it to replenish their food supplies. But the main pack of this season’s thru-hikers — those who intend to reach Canada before snow — is now far to the north, having left the southern terminus in April or May.

The Klamathon Fire early this month closed a 12-mile stretch of the PCT near Ashland, Oregon.

The Pacific Crest Trail is not being affected by the two biggest fires burning in California right now, Ferguson Fire near Yosemite and Carr Fire near Redding. The trail segment through Yosemite passes 20 miles east of the fire burning at the park’s western edge. Farther north, the trail passes through Lassen National Park, 50 miles east of Redding, then swings west to cross Interstate 5 near Dunsmuir.
