[pct-l] San Jacinto Fire Closes PCT

[rogers at isi.edu (Craig Milo Rogers)]

	The Blaisdell Fire, a hiker-caused fire on Mt. San Jacinto,
has closed the wilderness areas of Mt. San Jacinto State Park.  (One
news source said "voluntary" evacuation of hikers, others said that
the State Park's Wilderness area is closed.)  Although the PCT is not
explicitly mentioned in any article I've read so far relating to this
fire, it seems reasonable to assume that not one should enter this
part of the trail at this time.
