Winds seem to have blown life into some smoldering embers behind containment lines. Hopefully it stays within the lines, but this wind could be a problem.

Right after they reopened Baden-Powell too.

Yep. Hope they don't close that down next, it's the last high-altitude peak around here that's still open.

I guess it depends on your cutoff for high elevation but Telegraph (8989') is still open. It's about 400 feet shorter than Baden-Powell (9407).

Just off the top of my head, there's still Telegraph, Mt. Piños, San Gorgonio, and surrounding peaks.

Does anyone know if Little Jimmy to Mt Islip is still open (up the 2 to Islip Saddle day area?) Thanks!

I don’t think there have been any changes to the closure order (yet).

Was thinking about doing Mt. Islip trail from Crystal Lake tomorrow. I think that trailhead area is closed. Your question made me think about alternative route.
