The "Fork Fire" broke out on July 19 and spread across the East Fork area, spreading to 301 acres in just a few hours. The fire reached full containment on July 28.

When the fire broke out, the Angeles National Forest evacuated campers from the east fork of the San Gabriel River. There have been no evacuations since that time.
