Sooo glad I enjoyed it last Saturday.

Is that for both SD and up in OC in the Santa Ana's?

 

Thats kinda like closing Earth.

Man I rolled back from Solvang and this whole half of California is on Fire Again!

 

Inquiring minds will want to know???

I wonder if this is going to impact our trail work planned for next Sat in Trabuco Canyon???? I've got an email into Chris.

 

I doubt it. I think they'll reopen after the Santa Ana's are gone, but they'll be quick to close them the next time they blow back into this area.

 

I don't know who you are. Sorry. Do you have a link documenting this claim?

 

The CNF website doesnt say anything about it. Lets hope its just the district in SD.

He's from the San Diego Mountain Bike Association. He's legit.

 

But

who is going to claim that you are legit:?:

 

He's probably just received emails and/or phone calls. I doubt the CNF is updating their site at night.

Mark is a member of SDMBA and wouldn't have posted the news without having a good source.

 

The San Bernardino National Forest and the Angeles National Forest are closed (see the column on the right).

They have not yet mentioned about the Cleveland National Forest, but I'm sure it will be posted when it's official (or until this web site gets notice).

If you have not already heard, Trabucco Trailwork has been cancelled.

 

Before this is over, Trabuco could get a 10 year brushing w/o a single Pulaski being raised. 1/2 joking.

If it's needed, I'd like to offer my help when the work gets rescheduled.
