Sorry for the confusion but there's a great deal of radio traffic.

Smoke from this fire is being seen from many areas. A fire reported in Lytle Creek is now thought to be from this fire.

Good afternoon.

I am sorry if I sound completely inane here, but is this fire on/near 138?
My husband has to go down the hill in a while, he came up at 1pm through the flagging area and needs to go back about 3:30. Is 138 open? The freeway? He can go around but if the I15 is closed too there won't be much point.

Again, I am sorry if I sound dense but I can't figure out all the CHP speak. I do know I am seeing a heck of a lot of billowing black smoke that has me worried for anyone living over that way.

Thank you.

Request all North Desert BC's to report for duty.

lostkiwi,
The best I can tell is that traffic heading down Lone Pine Canyon to I15 and headed southbound should be OK.

Conditions are changing quickly with mutiple fires in progress.

TRAFFIC BACKED UP TO 395, HEAVY TRAFFIC REF FIRE

Wrightwood · « **Reply #31 on:** Jul 22, 06, 02:47:31 PM »

Railroad's been notified. They're shutting the tracks down. There's one engine backing out of the smoke now. As soon as they can be reopened, we need to notify them

Yikes.

Thanks WW. Actually he will be coming from by Rick's Cafe, maybe he should just forget it and go around. (Phelan Rd to Main and/or 395 to the 15 south?)

Thank you for your updates, they are awesome. It is very good of you to take the time to keep us informed.

Funky Gorilla, great (if very disturbing) picture. Every time I look out it looks bigger and blacker.

If he must get through, sooner would be better than later. If he must go through the closer it may already be to late, as there is s report s a fire at Sheepcreek and 138. Good luck

15 south may be a hard ride so to the fire at the ramp.

Structures are looking good in the West Cajon Valley.

I just drove down lone pine. The fire as of about 10 min ago was concentrated behind the Mormon rocks opposite of 138, there was a smoldering trail from the truck ramp to the rocks. It appeared to be moving west through west Cajon
