A brush fire in Castaic was 80% contained Friday after burning around 94 acres of open terrain south of Pyramid Lake amid high wind conditions.
Firefighters responded to the 39000 block of Golden State Highway around 12:15 p.m. Thursday, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
They managed to stop the progress of the flames and continued working collaboratively Friday evening to fully contain the fire.
The Frenchman Fire — so named due to its proximity to the Frenchman Flat area — was initially estimated at 50 acres, but county fire officials later put its size at 75 acres.
No injuries were reported and no structures were damaged.
The cause of the fire was unknown.
