Lovely photos, thanks for sharing. Torre Canyon still looks so scorched.
Yes, Lois. It’s haunting and beautiful to keep reading this landscape of fire.
As you scroll down, what is the road in the background of the 5th photo? Not Partington?
Don’t know if it has a name, but it’s part of the system of roads that leaves the Highway a little north of the Partington Ridge Rd. — the roads the De Angulo Trail begins along.
