Brent B @bbfires 37s
San Bernardino Comm Ctr not aware of any threat to Lytle Creek, smoke reports from Hwy 2 area near Wrightwood apparently smoke from #BrookFire, AA to check.

Note: From my vantage point in Pinon Hills there is a lot of drift smoke from H2 & 138 all the way to Victorville. Very noticeable smell of smoke in the air here at my place.

I like Facebook and will frequently check in on the Wrightwood group.

But there is nothing, NOTHING else out there like this forum for keeping up on the facts. I so appreciate it!

Absolutely to the 3 comments above.  If you want absolute, factual info, this is the place to get it.  Thanks, Elk and Wrightwood.  Comforting at times like this.
