Bad sign

A sign warning of critical fire danger is seen burned among the ruins of a kiosk at the entrance to Vogel Flats campground in an area known as Stonyvale in Big Tujunga Canyon the Angeles National Forest northwest of Los Angeles on Tuesday (Wednesday in Jakarta). Firefighters reported progress Tuesday against a gigantic blaze on the edge of Los Angeles that might be just a preview of even greater dangers ahead. AP/Reed Saxon
