Re: 2019 Fire and Smoke Impact Reports / Maps
I just got back to L.A. from Mammoth. Taboose TH is fully involved with visible fire and heavy smoke. There are several active hot spots as far as about 10 miles North of Taboose, but no farther South. It was impossible from the road to ascertain how far into the canyons the fire has spread, but guaranteed, nobody is exiting Taboose soon. There were several planes doing water drops and a few helicopters doing something. I saw about a dozen Cal Fire trucks going Northbound in two separate convoys. It looked like they were personnel vehicles that could carry about passengers + driver.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.
