Smoke running eastward along the foothills from what looks like about Arcadia right now. Doesn't look huge but it is pretty windy.

Uh oh

It's in Santa Fe dam
Just saw the heli do a water drop as we drove by on the 605.

No burned trails that I’m aware of yet but there are multiple “smaller” fires burning near Oakridge. They started last week from lightning strikes

Small fire- Glendora Ridge Road.

A rash of new evacuation today around the Dixie fire. It’s about twice the size of Lake Tahoe now.

Safe wishes for firefighters, evacuees and wildlife.

I’m out riding right now I have a good view of badly (tho 50 miles away) and don’t see any smoke plume

 

[Faust29]

The last reporting I can find indicates that it's holding at 50 acres... The fire crews jumped on it quickly, it seems.

This is on the roadway close to the shuttler's entrance to Glendora Mountain Road (GMR) that eventually drops you into Marshall Canyon via GMR (P-route) or Leave it for the Critters ridgeline trail.

You suck at hockey Ed!

Edit: Great! Now this post is out of context...Oh well.

The Dixie fire in NorCal surpassed 500,000 acres; 30% contained.

Tahoe basin will have smoke and haze a couple more days, then some improvement. Allegedly…

Gosh darn it!

 

[SS Barby]

Damn it. Knew I should've gone last Fri. Now it will probably never be the same. No more manzanita tunnel. More than likely no Cannell this year.

Burning up Sawmill Rd.

Best map a friend just sent me: https://caltopo.com/map.html#ll=35.6844,-118.55664&z=15&b=t&o=f16a,r&n=1,0.25&a=mba,modis_vp

I'm pretty sure that upper Just Outstanding is the red line you see on the map.

All of Alta Sierra, Unal, and Greenhorn look like they're burning.

Damn I had some good times there.

I was gearing up to do a late afternoon ride at Exploration Trail. Looks like that's not happening... This might be the Chaparral Fire near Temecula and the Santa Rosa Plateau/Cleveland NF...
