They are looking for reported hang glider forced down by the storm and seen in the wash alive.  Has not been found as of now.

Here are some photos from today's mudslide around 3:30 p.m....
According to one eyewitness I spoke with, the big boulder shown in the 4th photo down was bouncing in the air as it was making it's way towards the stuck truck.  The truck was pushed out of the way, and the boudler came to rest.  Lucky for the guy in the truck.  The guy also said you could hear the boulder bouncing down the wash.....

Wow quite a bit different than yesterday, there were no big boulders.

Thanks for the pics HB.

I was soaking wet after trying to pull everything in from my yard sale during the rain.  Taking down an EAsy UP in a pouring rain windstorm is VERY hard.  LOL

I am just curious why no one has mentioned the HEAVY TRAFFIC on Orchard, Lusanne & Zermatt due to the wash closure on Lone Pine today.  Didn't it bother anyone else?

A big thanks to San Bernandino for those lovely "road detour" signs that caused the heavy caravan of cars driving ALL DAY LONG on Zermatt.  What was that about anyway...never seen signs put up when the wash was out before. Are detour sign legal in a residential area?
 
I had to go inside my house and hide out - all I did while outside working was give directions to out of area folks & watch people speeding up and down the street - bummer to bummer with rain and all.

"mmmmm, why didn't those signs detour "right on East Canyon (sorry)....RIGHT on "PACIFIC CREST"- right on Wright Mountain to Hwy 2......this is bull!

Can a petition be done or something so the above streets don't get hit like this for the next wash closure?  And we all know there will be another wash out.

Absolutely, ridiculous!  This cause for one unpleasant day for sure~

Batnett and Angelwolf,
Now you know what life has ALWAYS been like for residents on Sheep Creek.  You will only have to live with it a day or two. :-\

If you find anything out let us know. I'm sure there are a lot of people out here who would also like to keep cars from driving on their streets.

It's so anoying to have cars go by my house all day long.

We also live on a residential street and have been living like hermits all summer due to Sheepcreek being the unofficial detour. And the traffic is not going into town to spend money.  Yesterday I actually ran in the house when someone stopped to ask for directions.  After awhile it just gets annoying.  LPC is still closed this morning. For some reason Sheepcreek never had a sign installed saying "Closed To Thru Traffic".  We could use one right now because traffic is still trying to get through.  How did LPC at Hwy 2 rate by getting two signs installed saying "Road Closed"?  That is stretching the truth.  I can only hope that the wash is closed all weekend.  Sorry East Canyon but now you know.

Is LPC open to get to 15 if we take Wright Mountain Rd. from 2 up to the top part of LPC and then down?

That's me with the dog (and I still have the dog - the owners have not returned home yet and the dog was afraid of the lighting and thunder) - and my daughter Tracy with the blue umbrella.  We were walking down Pine hoping to find the dog's owner.  We were drenched by the time we got to the music festival.

Is this in the paper or just online?

Liz,

I think LPC is open to the 15 via Wright Mountain.

Hey ChattyCathy.. you are now almost famous here in the San Fernando Valley. The Daily News had the picture of you and the dog on Page 3 of the main (A) section of the Sunday paper.... but they  identified the person in the picture as Tracy W.   ....oh well, almost your 15 minutes of fame.

  Channel 2 News had pics of the Truck Stuck and said thanks to Robin Hallman (?) of Wrightwood for sending them in.

You're kidding!  San Fernando? Has anyone seen the Sun today?  Or in another paper?  I'm without a car today, so I can't check the local papers.  Both Tracy and I spelled out our names for the photographer - but that's okay - he asked me if Tracy was my sister.
