The Station Fire ripped through the Los Angeles National Forest over two years ago. The fire took homes, lives and lots of dry brush/trees through the forest. Yesterday, almost all the forest closures were reopened to public use. That means I can again legally hike in the area. (even though I went on several hikes in the closed areas since the fire) I am happy that the forest is once again open and I am crossing my fingers that they will reopen Highway 2 soon. Highway 2 still remains closed due to damage from the Station Fire.
Here is a map of the reopened areas.
Here is a picture from when the fire was raging above LA.
