Report from Mount Waterman 09-06-2009I found this on the Waterman web site.Mountain News September 6th, 2009 Over 250 Firefighters are stationed at the Angeles Crest Christian Camp. They have spent the last few days trying to save Newcombs Ranch, Chilao and the Mt Waterman Areas. We did lose some structures in the Chilao area, but at this time they are keeping the fire in devils canyon. Take a look at the image below, that is a cam shot from Mt Wilson and it shows the fire down in the canyon on the back side of Mt Waterman. Fire crew expect the fire to remain in this area. However keep the prayers coming as we are not of out danger yet! Also to note: The Angeles Crest Hwy is now closed from La Canada to Islip Saddle. No date has been set to reopen the road. Much work will need to be done before most of us will be able to enjoy Mt Waterman again. We will keep you updated here, on our face book page and at our Snow Phone 818-790-2002. http://www.mtwaterman.org/ |
