This is probabaly the 4th or 5th time this has happened in the past week. Someone really needs to invent a stove that doesn't need it's clock reset every time the power blips.

Razz- here near Metcalf Bay we had a 3 minute outage this morning, then it popped back on. Interesting though about the beeping phones... that has happened a few times following the outage, but nothing shows on the displays. A ghost in the valley perhaps!

Electric issues out in Boulder Bay last night? Renter complaining power on/off during the night, fridge beeping, lights and fans coming on. Any one else??

@McToddy, Yeah that place is legit! Fun to watch but even that is hair raising for me
bullet McToddy on Tuesday 28 July 2026 - 18:27:49
SCM cool pic! I was not aware of climbing at Castle Rock... I was just aware of Pinnacles, north Holcomb Valley and the crack on 38 just above the hairpin for Forest Falls.... I may need to check out CR one of these days.
bullet SamIam on Tuesday 28 July 2026 - 16:58:11
Thanks scm! I had no idea about that, just thought it was a trail everyone seemed to like ! I have always been more a lake, waterski jet ski person and moderate hikes so never knew about rock climbing here.
bullet SCM ALERT🚨 on Tuesday 28 July 2026 - 16:45:54
Hey SamIam! Yes that was very sad to hear. Castle Rock is known for its pretty narly climbing terrain.
Here is a photo from the main climbing area: [Click Here]

Creaky! I was listening to the Fire Dept communicating with Edison regarding re-energizing those lines. Glad they were able to do so!

I just saw an article about a rock climber falling to his death in big bear July 12 and was wondering where people rock climb here? I’ve never seen them rock climbing in 30 plus years of being here.

Thank you for the update Creaky!!

I just went down 38. Both lanes are open but there are a lot of emergency vehicles around the turnout near the fire so be ready to slow down.
