The current map's #52 ("Bear Creek #536") is a few miles SW of me. It is listed at 14,000 acres -- but, at midnight last night it was already over 30,000 acres and had burned its way across Cass County and into Marion County.

AFAIK, there have been few homes lost, but one 100 year old church was destroyed. The Jefferson (Marion Co.) and Linden (Cass Co.) schools are closed, because the fires disrupt school bus routes.)

And there are are thousands of acres of timber land still in its path...
