[pct-l] 10,000 acre fire in Agua Dulce w/evacuations

[Shutterbug steiner]

I am not getting a lot of accurate beta on this fire called the "Canyon Fire" but from TV NEWS hysteria ....... this fire is in the neighborhoods, many are evacuating some stubborn ones are NOT, structures have been burned and horses are being left to run up in the hills.  Socal has not much good news today.  Hiker Heaven and their community has been in my thoughts today and hope to hear from Donna & Jeff soon.

  Hello from a long-time list lurker. I'm not having any luck online 
finding a good map of the rapidly-growing Agua Dulce fire, but it 
could be very close to Hiker Heaven. The latest reports say 
evacuations of neighborhoods near Vasquez Rocks are happening or 
could be eminent. It's a very emergent situation, with five separate 
wildfires taxing resources in the region. As many of you recall, 
there is no civic water infrastructure as such in the unincorporated 
area, so presumably no fire hydrants either.

I sent Donna Saufley an e-mail earlier this afternoon and haven't 
heard back. When I do, I'll pass along what I hear. Has anyone else 
tried to contact them to make sure they're safe?
