Sure, I got to go back to several areas I hadn't been to in quite some time and a few that I haven't been to before. My torn bicep got some rest and I actually saw a few of my old friends. Still, I just couldn't shake the feeling. Even though it'z an hour out of my way, even though I had just checked the FS home page before I walked out the door and it was going to make me late to the crag I had agreed to go to... I just had to check. The fuking signs were still up... What the fuk is rong with those guys. The fire never got closer than 20 miles and, there was no acess to the fire location from this side of the forest. I was just about to call my partner to say I was going to be late. Figured I would just roll one up... and then head down the hill. Shit!!!1 a fuking cop just pulled into the turnout. cept he didn't pullup next to me and he had a FS truck right behind him. They pulled past me and the ranger jumped out of the truck and took down the closed sign. huh??? I watched while he continued up the hill, stopping in each turnout removing the signs. I made a call, and followed them up the hill, untill they pulled into the turnout at teh WNSG and took down the signs there. And just like that the forest was open. Still no mention of the forest opening on the FS website as of a couple of minutes ago, but the forest is open and the WNSG is back in effect. I assume the rode is still closed up to teh old gnu? (what's left of it) That road is still closed. Drove up there this afternoon. It's amazing how close the fire got to the homes up there. People's lawns burned, but the firefighters' saved the homes. Jay
"Starting at 6:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 1, 2009, a new Station Fire Recovery Area Closure Order will be in effect. This will be posted to the USFS web site and posted throughout the Forest. The Station Fire Areas which sustained significant damage will remain closed with road closures in place by the Forest, CalTrans and LA County DWP. This modified closure... will in effect until at least September 2010."

Good to hear. It seemed a little ridiculous that it was closed in the first place, but I guess I don't know much about the exact situation.

Halfway up the ridge he freaks out, sprints a few large loops around me, then crashes at my feet, whining. I try to keep walking, he just runs in front of me and throws himself down again. Not really sure what's going on or what he's smelling, but I decide to turn back. He has another freakout crossing a stream and darts beneath my legs. I slip and tumble into the FREEZING water, giving him a good solid kick on the way down. Now I've got a sore wrist, a wet ass, and a limping mutt. Plus, on the way down we passed two ladies. Instead of wagging his tail and begging for scratches like he usually does with people, he sits (thank god!) and starts a low growl at them. Of course, one of the ladies snarls at me that she's afraid of dogs - as I'm straddling him, he's leashed, and my hand is on his collar - not that he's fighting me, he's just sitting, mellow save for the growl. Not sure what's into him, but he's passed out now. Terrible two's stage? Eat. Moar. Chicken. Correct That, and get rid of the dog.

I envision the scene in TBL where the dude tries throwing the J out the window and has to extinguish the fire with the beer.

OH Noez! Westerners are invading! As clausti mentioned, the luvable prankstah CI is driving his van across the upper midwest right now, and he will be arriving at the RRG sometime next week to cutz the ropes of the chossmarmots.
And, I just heard from curt, who has decided to fly out to the Gunks for Columbus Day weekend to climb with the clamheads and Lena_chita. Should be cool, since he was a local. Maybe he'll show us how to sneak into Skytop or something.

Car is packed....almost. I still need to pack up the laptop. But I need something to entertain myself while I'm waiting for Nathan.
He's trying to leave an hour early, which will put us down in the Red at 1am instead of 2am if all goes well. So, in theory, we'll be on the road in an hour.
I hate this point in time...I always feel like I'm forgetting something.

tent? lighter? headlamps? rain gear?
We'll hopefully be leaving in the next couple hours as well. Supposed to be excellent weather, though you wouldn't know it by looking outside right now.

Hope you guys have fun!! Enjoy the Red, climb lots and meet lots of new people! Say hi to Tristan for me!  He's a good bloke!
I'll be finally climbing next week too after a looooong break.
