FYI - the Fire Hazard Abatement Notice Map covers only areas under the responsibility of the County Fire Department. In Big Bear Valley, it is only Fawnskin.

The rest of the valley is covered by Big Bear Fire Authority. They do not publish a map.

I am assuming that the CHP sent out that train derailment dispatch in error. The address posted in the incident is the address of the CHP office in Running Springs. They should have saved it for April 1

As always, very impressed with our local fire department. Not sure how to post photos/videos but if someone lets me know, I’d love to share them.
bullet MountainHunter on Sunday 23 August 2026 - 08:53:45
Yes! Thank you @AdironDak for alerting us to the fire on Aspen. The fire department responded very quickly. I wonder if units positioned at the Bear dirt bike event responded and thus got there even quicker.
