It is off Tenaja road in the miller mesa area west of Tenaja falls. Fire resources are on scene at the homes in the area and planes are up.

I’m camping at launch point Marina in lake Elsinore and looks like it’s just to the west of us. Maybe a ridge or two over.

From where I am in lake Elsinore it looks like it has laid down a bit from when I got home a hour ago. The smoke plum looks sporadic compared to earlier.

I live off Tenaja rd. It’s pushing pretty hard, reports are that it’s spotting 1/4 mile in front of itself. Last acreage was 400 but I’m guessing it’s a lot more. It’s moving toward Ortega. Thankfully, There arent alot of homes in that direction. There’s a bunch of aircraft enroute but the smoke is making visibility difficult. I’m at work right now so my info is second hand

THAT is not under control

 

[Xring01]

I live pretty close to Cole Canyon Elementary, we are watching it. Its close to us.

That entire area burned a few years ago, so there shouldnt be alot of fuel for it.

My son lives out in the area. Just responded and said Ortega is shut down

That was the Tenaja Fire, 2 years ago Next month. It burned the west side of the Pleateau/Preserve area, all the way down to Copper canyon area. . This started back by Tenaja Falls, off the Forest Service road that ties into Ortega. Incidentally, we were at a fund raising dinner last weekend to raise money for the Preserve that was damaged by the Tenaja Fire. It was held at Liberty Oaks Ranch, and I heard the fire is bumping the ranch now.

I live off Calle DeOso Oro in Copper Canyon… Tenaja fire took out the entire mountains behind us.

This fire is going away from us. But friends in La Cresta are very worried and evecuated.

Well here's what I can find regarding how the Chaparral Fire looks at almost 9AM Sunday.

From the Cam --- No wind, a few hot spots kicking off --- where's the damned tankers ????????????? Fire Fighting on a budget it would seem.

So, one Bronco doing loops --- accessing, but not a single tanker in the area or even flying, no helos dropping water --- guess it's a wrap folks.
