- Nacimiento-Ferguson Road was closed to through traffic yesterday…..as firefighters worked to contain the 120-acre Mill Fire, burning in the Big Sur area of south Monterey county. People there are also asked to avoid the intersection of Kirk Creek and Highway 1, so that firefighters can access the fireline from there.
