The high winds forecast for Monday night bypassed Eastern Sierra’s Taboose Fire, sparing the area a repeat of the weekend’s wind-whipped acceleration of the blaze.

More accurate mapping Tuesday determined the area of the fire to be 9,235 acres (14 square miles), down from the previous day’s estimate of 10,500. The fire was 30 percent contained, according to the morning incident report from the Inyo National Forest.

Evacuation orders were lifted at 1 p.m. Tuesday for Big Pine Canyon, including Glacier Lodge and Bernasconi Ranch, a science education camp and retreat center.

No back-country hikers have had to be rescued since Sunday’s airlifting of those whose planned return route, Red Lake Trail, was blocked by fire.

The John Muir Trail, a segment of the Pacific Crest Trail, is four miles west of the burn zone. It remains open, but long-distance hikers cannot pick up resupply packages at Taboose Pass.

The Taboose Fire started Wednesday in sagebrush high desert eight miles south of the town of Big Pine. The cause is still under investigation but is thought to have been lightning, the Inyo County Sheriff’s Office said.

During winds of 40 to 50 mph on Saturday night, the fire jumped containment lines and burned into the conifer forests of the Sierra’s eastern slope. It is now two miles from the east edge of Kings Canyon National Park.
