Important for those planning to hike in Oregon: Mt Jefferson Wilderness has been closed for a couple of weeks and now the Three Sisters Wilderness south of OR highway 242 (McKenzie Pass) is closed. Too many fires! See InciWeb for details.

There are also trail closures at Crater Lake, and thanks to "dry lightning," new fires keep popping up. We got a tiny bit of rain last weekend, which was wonderful, but 0.05" (in the Cascades) is of course not enough to wet down a forest fire!
