air quality, east san gabriels vs san bernardinos

was thinking of heading up around baldy tomorrow to hike, until the fires came. now thinking of heading over around San Gorgonio. it seems the air quality around baldy isn't too bad. anyone have an idea of how it is around Gorgonio?

Both Baldy and SanG are rated moderate, but Baldy has slightly better air quality.

Checking out AQMD more because I felt strange about moderate rating.  Now the site has Smoke Advisory and says Unhealty about San Gabriel area.

San Gorgonio has no Smoke Advisory.

interesting stuff. thanks a lot

There's a fire near Oak Glen that's sending smoke up towards San Gorgonio Peak - so air quality today was poor, probably won't be too great tomorrow either
