As for the PCT the fire did not get close.  The fire close to 38 was called the Thurman Fire and stayed west of the 38.

Does anyone know where the recent fire in San Bernardino NF was? I have not
seen a newspaper article with a map and have not found one on the web. I
understand that it was near Cabazon and near Highway 38. Was it east or west
of 38? Did it cover the PCT north of the I-10?
