I don't know why it means so much to me, but I hope my grandparents house makes it yet again. They sold it a couple of years ago, but the memories will last forever. :(

Bad news. With only one safe route to move equipment in and out of GVL I can see them not taking any chances.

I just looked at that address on google earth. It is no wonder why these houses are burning up so quick. You see much more trees than houses with trees surrounding the houses.
God bless those people. :(

There's just not enough firemen up on the mountain right now. Commanders are saying on the scanners (http://old.rimoftheworld.net/incidents/3623&p=1 that San Diego is taking priority w/firefighters. One positive note, the wind up in the mountains is beginnig to subside and they're planning areal attacks at daybreak.

Wow! I spent every new years in just outside of running springs, in a little place called Arrow Bear. Our neighbors had a cabin on the south side of the lake facing the water. I hope it makes it.....:(

Looks like th fire wrapped around Running Springs near Heaps Peak. It's hitting homes in the "Nob Hill" and "Fredelba" areas of Running Springs. A flare of the fire is also heading back towards Skyforest, Cedar Glen, and Arrowhead.

My Parents lived up in Running springs for ten years. They were evacuated 3 or 4 times in that ten years because of fires. I finnaly convinced them to move because of thier health and it looks like it was just in time. There house is in the middle of the fire map. I hope all is well with their neighbors

A fire official an hour ago announced that they lost 100 houses in Running Springs last night.
On the news this am. Fire officials not having enough recourses to save the structures were breaking open garages and wheeling out cars, boats and whatever they could before the thing was a total loss.
So very sad.:(

Per phone conversation with USFS PIO Jim Wilkins, the fire came up on to Wilderness and burned several homes in upper Rowco. It crossed 18 and ran down Old City Creek. It jumped 330 to the north and east of Live Oak not below Live Oak. Some homes have been lost in lower Rowco.

Re: Interview with John Miller, USFS - Estimates the Slide incident to be approx. 4000 acres at this time. Priority at this time is structure protection in the Smiley Park and Running Springs area. Estimated containment is 5% at this time. Fire officials pulled resources from Green Valley Lake at 10 p.m. last night, and have been unable to access area since, due to road being blocked by fire. Miller added that a strike team from Malibu has just arrived and will be deployed to the Smiley Park area. The other area on which they are concentrating efforts is the area west of Lake Arrowhead, and the Twin Peaks area.
