Dirtyhip Posted August 18, 2017 Share #1 Posted August 18, 2017 It is horrible. I love the west. It just bumms me out to be in smoke for a month. It is horrible right now. @Scrapr. Crater lake century is tomorrow. I doubt they will even be able to see the lake. I am hoping Oakridge is looking better than this. Bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted August 18, 2017 Share #2 Posted August 18, 2017 Was it last year we met you on the ridge? It was smoky then as a fire was visible from the park entrance. Be safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrapr ★ Posted August 19, 2017 Share #11 Posted August 19, 2017 4 hours ago, dotman17 said: Where are all the fires?? There is one up by Warm Springs. <10k acres. Then the one causing problems is West of Sisters. 7k acres or so this am. That thing is really putting out the smoke. There is ash coming down in Bend. There was some evacs close to the fire line in Sisters. The wind is blowing from the North so the smoke bank is not moving much North of Bend. But...that put it right in the DH travel path. Oakridge is the other side of the mountain so should be fine. Most of the trails in 3 Sisters Wilderness are closed. Another one in a Wilderness area by Detroit (Brietenbush) that has been going for several weeks. Sheriffs at every closed road going up in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
