Diminished winds helped fire crews take the offensive on Sunday against an 11-day-old blaze burning out of control through the rugged high country of New Mexico's Gila National Forest, but nearly 300 homes in the area remained under evacuation. The so-called Whitewater-Baldy fire, which destroyed a dozen privately owned cabins at the height of its rampage last week, has charred well over 122,000 acres (49,000 hectares) of timber since it was ignited by lightning on May 16, fire officials said.
