Notice to hikers
Those hiking along the John Muir Trail and Pacific Crest Trail are not in danger of the fire. However, we encourage hikers to make it to one of three locations in order to make it easy for first responders to account for everyone. The following three temporary refuge areas have been established for people to go and shelter in place.
- China Peak Resort
- Edison Lake
- Blayney Meadow
All trails via eastern passes are still open, so hikers may also choose to exit to Hwy 395. Western slope exits are blocked at Hwy. 168, so take refuge at one of refuge areas mentioned above.
Vehicle exit routes
- Those who are between Shaver Lake and Dinkey Creek should exit toward Pine Flat Lake via Providence Creek Road.
- Those who are in the area of Dinkey Creek and Courtright / Wishon Reservoirs should exit toward Pine Flat Lake via Black Rock Road.
- The exit routes above are dirt roads which are not passable with RV trailers, so please drop your trailer at a safe location prior to exiting.
Base camp
All fire and law enforcement personnel are currently working out of a command post established at Sierra High School, 33326 Lodge Rd, Tollhouse, CA 93667.This was copied from another Sierra Forum. I wanted to share this important information.
