Fires above Palm Springs


I was driving home from Carl's Jr. and saw the flames dancing on the ridges and valley of the San Jacinto Mountains, just south of town. The fire had been reported as starting on the Idyllwild side during the afternoon and came over the crest of the mountains by nightfall, and made a feeble run at the Indian Canyons valley floor. As of now, the winds have subsided, and it appears this fire will be handled quickly by the firefighters who have hiked up to stamp it out.
