My God Parents live at 16030 Live Oak Springs Rd. Can anyone tell me if that area is safe? Thank You

I just met with a customer of mine that lives on Live Oak Springs. They say their house is fine but that they can see the fire off in the distance. The fire is West / Northwest of them and moving a different direction.

What is the news on the new fire in Westbridge / Stevenson Ranch near Magic Mountain. My wife can see if from our house and is worried it will jump over the 5 freeway and head towards College of the Canyons.

Does anybody have any updated information if the condos on Plum and heiler circle are ok. I am out of town and can not reach anybody?

Does anyone know if the Mobile Home Park, Canyon Country Estates is open, off of Vasquez Cyn Road?

Thanks, Sam

My Fiance works off Magic Mountain Parkway, and will need to get back to San Fernando Valley? Does anyone know of the routes they are offering since the 5 frwy and Soledad will be closed off?
Thanks for any help at all!!!

My daughter evacuated and has no idea if her house has burned. Does anyone know about the houses in Canyon View Estates?? They are Camp Plenty and Calle. Close to Sierra Vista Junior High School The front of her subdivison is along the LA River basin. The flames came over the hill and down toward her house. She can't get back in.
Thanks

does anybony no anything in and around benz and aliminos. benz is off of boquet canyon right before david way. my parents live at 20770 jenny ct. any info will help, thanx

my sister lives on Lost Canyon rd in Canyon Country with all her horses. does anyone know anything about that area? we are worried sick and she isn't answering her cell. thank you so much.

Canyon Country Mobile Estates is letting people back in...This is off Vasquez cyn and Sierra Hwy to those who live here.
My fiance just called me to let everyone know....
Thank God and I'll continue in faith for all the others....

What's up with the Houston TV news channels? Half of Southern California is on fire and they devote 1 or 2 minutes of the nightly news to it? We watched HOURS of coverage on Katrina...and really felt terrible for the people when I lived in Santa Clarita, CA. SO CAL fire is also a tragedy of epic proportions. There just might be some of us that would like more in-depth coverage.

Does anyone have an update on the mandatory evac of Plum Cyn? Lived there until last March...

I'd like to know more about the bigger fire, you know the one that makes up 30% of the total fires in California right now? What is wrong with the media's Malibu obsession? There are more homes and the fire is 10 times the size in Canyon Country.

Tell me about it...I used to live in Santa Clarita...guess they just don't have as many movie stars in SCV.I'm trying to find out about Plum Canyon...last I heard (about 3 hours ago), there was a mandatory evac.

I saw 4 or 5 homes today that burned yest. on camp plenty, which is just half way up the hill from Sierra vista.

to mom in St. Louis, I believe the people on camp plenty went back there today, I saw them on the news. It was awful I hope your daughters house is ok, I lived in Canyon Cntry for 30 yrs the first 4 yrs. up in Sky Blue. Good Luck!

Did Big Oaks lodge burn on Bouqet?

Any information on Baviera Way in Stevenson Ranch? My friends live there and are currently out of town. I'm concerned about their house.

from what I know the fire back there is smoldering....many people are on the hills putting out the hot spots. When I talked to my mom she said they are out of harms way of the flames but are still taking precautions because of the embers...there weren't any homes lost I know many people stayed and used their hoses and the fires came closer.

Whoa...way to close for comfort...but I'm relieved to know the houses are still there. Thanks...you've been so sweet and responsive!

I heard Lombardi Ranch burned. Anyone know the status. Our class has a field trip.

I have friends that live on Goodvale Rd on the hill off of Camp PLenty, another in that same area on Fairweather St (just off Whites Canyon), and another in Sand Canyon Ranch Apartments. I have not been able to reach any of them by phone or email since yesterday early afternoon. Can anyone tell me the status of those areas?

Its absolutely rediculous how little media coverage there is on this area

My dad lives next to Begonias Lane Park in Canyon Country. Does anyone know if this area is safe. He is on vacation and is worried. Major intersection is Soledad Canyon Road and Shadow Pines Blvd. Please advise.

hey
Scott- my son and his family live on Edgeview- off Begonias at top of hill. As of last night they did not have to evacuate.
