It was brought up by ktla in a news conference but the forest service replied We decided at the last moment not to carry out a controlled burn as planned" uh huh how convenient. the forest service guy turned white when asked the question. and then they proceeded to investigate themselves, at th...

I wonder why no one is making a big deal or investigating the fact that the fire crew from that station where the fire started, had burn permits for for controlled burns that day at that location.
Next to the blatant incompetence, I smell a cover up.

from my side of the mountains we got snow on baden powel, burnham, and dawson saddle.

DUDE.....................
Yer a hiking god.

Yup that's the one, it was always closed when used to go up usually in April, or late September October. I always thought it was a summer horse pack in camp for rich spoiled kids. thanks for the info, learn somthing new everyday. kind of neat. The meadow that is adjacent to it, right next to the cre...

i believe it was used by cal fish and game when they were using the lakes for breeding stock lakes for the golden trout like a field lab, sleeping cabin.

Wow thats a terribly tragic story. I think the rock thrower bears more responsibility then feeling bad. At the very least, financial arrangements for the wife and daughter. I don't see where being a veteran has any bearing on his responsibility to make this right. This is a tough one. As for the pee...

My wife bought me one of these as a fun gift, I don't have the courage to take it out of the house. I think this could some be considered a weapon. :-) And yes, its as big as it looks. It actually is as wide as the palm of your hand... It makes a cool conversation piece on the shelf. Its just more f...

that's correct, the license required is a technician license, but its very easy to get . all the questions come, in the book from www.arrl.com as they appear on the test, its just a pool of questions. the neat thing is how really small and light this radio is. I only take it with me when I am going ...
