That's a lotta fire. The cars driving through were pretty cool to see.

Looks like summer in SoCal...

^lol it would be funny... I'd walk into the best buy out in lancaster, and then walk out about an hour later, and hill/mountian would have been completely burned to a crisp- never even got to see the fire half the time

9/7/2010 2:58:00 PM

you think thats hot...WAIT TILL YOU BURN IN HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

9/7/2010 3:00:41 PM

woah

^^^ I lived in Lancaster for 3 years what a shithole.

How is the smoke in CO? Alaska regularly has massive fires in the summer month, which results in Fairbanks being blanketed by thick smoke. Its pretty shitty.

Pretty impressive/thick, actually.

Estes Park was pretty much clear when I left ~130?pm.
I crested a ridge at like 630ish and was like HOLY FUCK WHERED THE MOUNTAINS GO? Sunset was effectively ~1.5hrs early today. The fire has more than doubled since last night.
Also, there is little, if any, containment. This thing started yesterday ~10am.

That's what ambrosia1231 said.

How far are you from the fires? You think they might have to evacuate you?

And does it taste like... burning?

9/7/2010 11:52:51 PM

I don't know.
I've heard 35 miles, and 15 miles, and looked at maps and decided I'm far enough away that I don't care about the distance.

Highly doubtful we'll have to evacuate, but the smoke is quite bothersome. I did eat dinner outside tonight, and it wasn't smoky. Then again, it wasn't grilled

This is where ambrosia filmed it at....
