This is a day late, but sorry to hear you are moving off our beautiful mountain Dave. I know that time will come for us Also as my husband has Parkinson’s. Take care of yourself and enjoy the wonderful memories of Big Bear.
[UPDATE] TRAFFIC ACCIDENT in BIG BEAR LAKE Big Bear Fire On Scene Of A 3 Vehicle Traffic Accident Blocking Eastbound Lane. Appears All Occupants Are Out Of Their Vehicles. Units Will Be Checking For Injuries. Units On Scene Report 3 Minor Injuries. Can Handle With Medic Ambulance 281. DETAILS: [Click Here]
Be careful if heading out by the CalTrans sign that they are installing over by City Halll. It's down to one lane but whoever they have manning traffic control is aparently deciding to send both opposing lanes at once. I just got caught up in that...thankfully people are driving slow, but it still got a bit messy.
Clean bear is permanently closed. I heard they were going to open again above summit employee housing by sacred heart camp but didnt see anything there.
UNKNOWN TYPE FIRE notified the RP advising it's about two miles on Hatchery Road off of Highway 38. Uh, south west of Highway 38 off Hatchery. Engine 3581 is en route also
@SBCOUNTYFIRE PHELAN (Final): Forward rate of spread has been stopped. Remainder of responding #SBCoFD resources have been canceled. @CALFIREBDU More Info: [Click Here]
