The good news is that it's raining right now and we got a good soaking rain yesterday too. But they're thunderstorms and we could do without the lightning.

The Flagstaff fire in Boulder is small (those pics are of the huge Waldo Canyon fire in Colo Springs) but today is the first morning I did not see or smell smoke since it began (and we live about 7 miles away).

Guess who is going for 4 days in the Wimenuche wilderness on Friday?

I'm guessing campfires are not an option.
Good for you! Chicago Basin?

You may not even be able to use your stove.

Yeah. Hope we can use stoves. I've got a [expletive] load of boil in bag food that I can't use otherwise.
