Sometimes there just are not enough officers to go around.  Could have been a major TC somewhere else in their district at the same time.  Fire Department doesn't have the staffing to afford dropping off folks to close roads.  A minor inconvienence.

I just spoke with a Forest Service investigator and he said that a person was cited and will appear in federal court. The guy admitted to starting a warming fire.

Your new Forest Service Volunteers were on duty this morning. I too was turned around way at the bottom. I returned to the top and set up a road block where I turned around a couple hundred cars.
Thanks to Wrightwood for radio support and Artology and Boston Bob for bringing more flares and coming to take over.

Great work to you all!  Thank you so much for all of your work and for helping our community!!

Clint that kind of help could have saved lives if this thing turned nasty.  We are in for a long fire season.  Great job all!

I know the USFS Volunteer Patrol Rangers will step up.  Great Job Clint, Artology, BostonBob and Wrightwood.  I get the feeling that everyone in Wrightwood is going to step up for the betterment of the community this summer.  It is going to  take everyone's cooperation in being on watch for those individuals bent on starting fires that could be disasterous to our community and helping out when needed.
