McLean Forest Fire

[trailguy]

Does anyone know yet if any trails were part of the fire?

Possibly, but hard to say at this point. Viagra ridge to the north is the closest trail to the fire. Ufortunately if it did make it there the first thing hit would likely be the new trail we hired the MTB boys to build.
If the fire went West, Quirk MTN trail is the first trail hit and Show n Shine a little further West.
If it jumped the valley to the East, Stickler is the first trail hit.

Since no one has mentioned it, there is a large area closed, not sure if people are accessing it or not.
