Yeah... I wish I could be up there supplying water / coffee and food... They really need to keep that fire south of 330... too many homes on the north side... not to mention the tens of thousands of dead trees (bark beetle) in the Deep Creek valley between Lake Arrowhead and Green Valley Lake.

You and me, both. For the record, In & Out Burgers are supplying food to firelines; I keep seeing the trucks hitting stores all over the place for restocking before driving out again. Walmart has also been running loads of water and juice up to FF's.

The bark beetle-infested trees do need to be removed, and a fire would be good for them in a way... but with all of the homes there, it would have to be a very carefully-controlled burn. What they have now is anything but a controlled burn, unfortunately. :(

Holding steady along the rim, maybe a good 10-15mph uphill wind at Rim High School.
