I'm in the San Gorgoino Pass. You want smoke? Multiple times we've had the mountain just 4 blocks from me go up in flames. The Esperanza Fire where those 5 firefighters died was one. I can see the area they died in from my front yard. Then there's all the hills going up to Big Bear on the other side of me and the indian reservation hillsides that go up all the time. Yeah it's smokey, you cough, you can't see the sky through the smoke as the wind keeps the smoke near ground level here. It's a damn sight to behold when it's that close. But in all honesty I have bigger issues with the wind and dirt. It's like a fog outside right now there's so much dirt in the air. You can see the headlight beams of cars on the road.

It's a cycle. It only takes a few years for all the vegetation to grow back and dry up. Then another fire. These aren't trees we're talking about out here. This is dense brush (of the tumbleweed type) and manzanita. The former grow as large as a car in one year and the later grow back to 12-15 feet in a few years.
