Heads up.

Saturday, September 29th, 7am to 4pm

The USDA Forest Service has granted a use permit for an ultra trail run this date which will start at 7 am and end at 4 pm. There will be approximately 120 - 150 runners on the trail that day. For safety and goodwill, SDMBA asks you to avoid Noble Canyon and Laguna Meadow trails on that date. Information about the event and a map of the course are located at: http://www.noblecanyon50k.com/

OK

looks like there's a brush fire in the area? Dave, you smoking while riding again?

I hope they can contain the fire before it gets worst.

The CHP started ticketing people who stopped on the pine valley bridge to watch the fire. Don't they know the best way to watch a brush fire is to sit on a hilltop and wait for it to come to you.

Damn!

I wish I knew about the trail run sooner, or else I totally would've signed up for it. As my luck would have it, I'm starting back up on my trail running come October. Hopefully they'll hold a second annual Noble Canyon 50k next year.

The fire is currently burning South of I-8, in the Bear Valley area near Bucknum Springs(the Corral Canyon ORV area had already been closed due to extreme fire danger), thankfully headed away from Pine Valley & Noble Canyon. Cool night time temps, little wind and reinforcements on the way should have the fire contained soon.

Hopefully, I'll get in a Noble run this weekend!
