Another, in Oregon, spans 640 square miles.

Unpredictable winds are hampering efforts to put out California's largest wildfire.

Inspectors weren't able to get to the blaze when it began to tear through Indian Falls, at the weekend.

Authorities are hopeful that better weather in southern Oregon will help them make progress, though.

It's scorched 640 square miles of remote land - just over half of it is now contained.
