We're headed into peak fire season in Socal with a number of fires are still raging. Anyone who thinks we'll be riding on National Forests here in Socal in the next month is dreaming. I'm guessing mid or late November at the earliest.

Such a negative nilly....The Path is posting on their FB and IG pages that the CNF will be back open TOMORROW!!! Remember, that's The Path and not me....just in case they are mistaken :rolleyes:
 
I just got back from a few days up near San Luis Obispo. Specifically Montana De Oro SP mountain biking on the coast. Was able to find a County regional park that had full on camping facilities, El Chorro Campgrounds about 15 minutes inland from MDO. Full hookup if needed, showers, nice bathrooms. There is also Irish Hills to ride in the vicinity, a bit steeper and chunky if that's your need too. Clear air and cool.

Well there are a lot of idiots out there, and I'd like to have some actual forests to ride in so I wouldn't complain (much) if they stayed closed. Will be nice to have them open though....


CNF open except for fire closures, including most trails. Specific list here: https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/cleveland/home/?cid=fseprd821846

Los Padres also opening except for Monterrey Ranger District. I don't see announcements yet for Angeles NF or SBNF. SBNF should partially open though, except for area around Forest Falls / Angelus Oaks.

Sequoia NF partial reopening. Everything north of Kernville stays closed. SQF fire is still expanding towards Three Rivers. Partial opening Inyo NF as well.
 
Once it's open I don't think they'll close a forest again unless there is a bunch of new fires to take up resources. The state-wide forest closure resulted from extreme dry conditions combined with no available resources to fight new fires. Now they are getting a number of fires under control, there are likely resources available to take on any new fires that pop up. Hopefully there aren't any new big ones, but we'll see.
 
Come on SBNF! Come on SART!

C’MON!
 
There is a smoking/fire ban for all of Region 5 - basically all of California. And Hawaii.
