Storms extinguish long-playing fire season INLAND EMPIRE – (INT) – The Forest Service is taking advantage of cold, damp weather to resume so-called ‘prescribed’ burning in the San Bernardino Mountains.
All ignitions will be for pile burns, but only if weather conditions are safe at the time and location of each site. Impending potential burns will be located near: • Fontana/Rialto: Sycamore Fire Station, located north of the cities and off Glen Helen Parkway near Interstate 15. • Highland: City Creek Fire Station, located north of town off Highway 330. • Lake Arrowhead: Skyforest Work Center, located on the southside of town off Highway 18. • Running Springs: Deerlick Fire Station, located east of town off Highway 18. • Big Bear: East of Baldwin Lake off Arrastre Creek Road (Forest Road 2N04). • Angelus Oaks: Converse Fire Station, located northeast of town in the Barton Flats area. Meantime, the most recent of the season’s wildfires is out. The Bonita fire covered 713 acres since it broke out January 15th near Mountain Center in the San Jacinto Mountains. No buildings were damaged and the cause was not determined. Story Date: January 28, 2021
