Narrative:
In departing from the big bear airport; I inadvertently entered the firefighting tfr south of big bear airport. For a pre-flight briefing; I had used an efb program that had not downloaded the graphical tfr boundaries in the morning when I consulted the efb graphical representation. In the future; I can obtain a briefing directly from the FAA or consult a service known to be online and linked to FAA information.
