We had a couple of days with good air quality here in the valley, but now there is smoke starting to pour over the mountains, bummer.
Link to Current Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest Order covering the Leavitt Meadows area -teledork said:I just got home from a backpacking trip that had been postponed several times since early August. I did get a couple of days of clear air near the crest of the Sierra when the wind shifted - watched the forecast and planned for it.
And then I am walking through the Leavitt Meadow campground to get back to my truck and apparently someone took the NO FIRES red tape off the fire ring and had a campfire burning. It was 10:30 in the morning, warm enough to go swimming and no one was present in the campsite.
I am just going to leave it at that as anything else I might say would likely offend someone.
