**Start Date/Time/Location** The Inn Fire ignited on Thursday, May 22, 2025, at approximately 3:36 p.m. on the west side of Highway 395, just south of Mono City in Mono County[3][5]. **Size and Containment** As of the last update on May 28, 2025, the fire has burned 728 acres and is 70% contained[1][4][5]. **Growth and Rate of Spread** The fire grew rapidly due to erratic winds and dry conditions, spotting across the east side of Highway 395. It spread quickly in the first few hours after ignition, fueled by moderate winds and unusually dry conditions for May[3][5]. **Containment Efforts** A full suppression response was ordered, involving firefighting aircraft, local volunteer fire departments, and agency fire crews. Over 500 fire personnel responded to the incident, focusing on mop-up operations as containment progressed[3][4][5].
