Dollar Fire Closes LoLo Pass and Campgrounds
It's a hazy day near Mt. Hood today with the Dollar Fire clouding up our skies on this Labor Day weekend. This fire originated from the North side from a lightening strike near Cooper Spur. Yesterday it crept up to Cathedral Ridge with strong East winds whipping down our canyons. Limbs were dropping and power was knocked out for some local residents. Friends up LoLo Pass Road had ash raining down on their home all afternoon.
Many campers and horse campers were told to leave our local campgrounds-McNeil and Riley Horse Camp, Lost Lake. The Pacific Crest Trail is closed too. Check details on camp areas that are closed.
