Do you remember that lovely rock fence on the lower facing side of the mountain? It was after you came up the long, steep road. I think Christmas Village was around there.
I rarely took that way, except when Big Bear was on fire about six years ago.
Folks could go up to Sugarloaf if they are afraid.
Santa's Village was around there! That area is so absolutely beautiful that I cannot even fathom this. If the wind stays steady the fire will move north into the High Desert.
