Thanks Boots. I understand one might have been a trail angel on her way to pick up folks. Absolutely tragic.

Mrs Bear- true words. Both people were very active and involved in many things for the good of the community. Very very profound loss for Big Bear.

SR18 Is closed to southbound traffic 4.5 mi south of the Jct of SR 138 at Waterman Canyon Rd (San Bernardino Co) - Due to a traffic collision.

Boots, oh no 😢. This is so upsetting. Incredibly heartbreaking for the victims and the families. 🙏 Just awful . 😞

[CHP DISPATCH] RUNNING SPRINGS - WW-WRONG WAY DRIVER 7292-7545 HIGHWAY 330
UPDATES: [Click Here]

Clarification- driver of sedan

Red subaru. T-boned by fast moving truck. Fatality was driver. 2 more airlifted. Everyone in the sedan were locals. Very very sad situation.

Mountain art, white pickup vs small red sedan. Looks like it was a head on slightly off center. Truck on its side against a tree, sedan badly crushed on driver’s side. This is only a guess, I would assume the fatality was in the sedan. Let’s all be careful on our mountain roads.

what kind of accident was it? headon? what kind of vehicles?

Really bad situation with the wreck. Might I point out that South side of Cienega is where City wants to move the Clean Bear Site #2. So how do we slow these people down some?????
