What can I say about big.bear.2 that isn't already written all over his outfit?  Looks like he got an extra shot of that liquid courage from his orange kool-aid before shooting these videos.  Honestly, though, he looks like he's having fun, so I might join in.  MAGA Trump cult45 bootlickers generally give off creepier vibes, but bigbear looks like he is getting down to this new protest song.  It's not every Trump supporter wearing Trump clothes...

Liftoff or or when the kids practice leaving the nest

'Sunny' takes to the air with a 3.3-second-long hover this afternoon at the #BigBear bald eagle nest.

Grateful to have happy distractions from the news. The Big Bear eagles have two adorable hatchlings. The magnificent scenery and nest activity is healing. Eagle cam!

Friends of Big Bear Valley Eagle cam!

(BB is one of the big mountains we can see in the mountain skyline from where we live, it is further east of where all the LA fires were.)

We’ve been watching Jackie and Shadow since the pandemic started and so far they’ve been unsuccessful. But this year there are THREE eggs, which raises the odds! Here’s hoping for eaglets in a few weeks…

Any ham radio folks near Big Bear (or who'd like to be in Big Bear) from Oct 11-13th, great volunteer opportunity to man the Kodiak Ultra Marathon. Contact K6DDZ (qrz email is good). #hamradio #volunteers #ultramarathon #BigBear #California

Help needed to shorten shift times and cover some posts where illness has taken some radio operators out of commission.

The Kodiak Ultra Marathon by UTMB is scheduled to take place in Big Bear October 11-13.  That's next week!  We are still in need of a few radio operators willing to brave the nights and elements to help keep runners safe on course.  

This is an international trail run for 5 distances up to 100 miles.  Yep!  On foot. During the night.  Rain, shine or snow!   Runners have 36 hours to complete the 100 mile event, while the first runner will probably arrive in less than 18 hours.  Approximately 2000 runners will be coming from all over the world to race.

We will have some aid stations which are easy access, some with more difficult access and some with overnight requirements.  We also need volunteers to help out at Net Control which will be in the ICP at the Holiday Inn.  (Timbers room, if you recall from the HamEscape!  ;-)  Non-hams are welcome to join us as scribes (loggers).  The only requirement for logging is to be computer literate (basic Excel) or have good handwriting.

Also, if anyone is willing to hike 3.5 miles to the top of Sugarloaf Summit and spend about 20+ hours there, we could also use help at that location.  It really takes someone hardy!  A non-ham can even do this post with a cell phone. 

No event radio experience?  We'll train you!

The flames raced up steep terrain, chewing through thick vegetation as they approached #RunningSprings, a mountain community of ~5k people that lies between the populated resort areas of Lake #Arrowhead & #BigBear Lake. The community has been ordered to evacuate, while Lake Arrowhead & areas to its west are under an evacuation warning.
