we're at the line fire just giving a quick update the Choppers are in full force today there's got to be at least five large Choppers in rotation so there's a lot of air support trying to protect the communities of Running Springs and Big Bear so this particular one has a a bag that they fill up with water now over that little Hill right there there there are three Lakes at the ukpa it's called the ukpa regional park and I imagine that's where they're getting their water from I hear another Chopper overhead just doing a little Chopper spotting today in a quick update and just as one goes in another one comes out so they are hitting this fire hard to really save big bear so last night it was save Menton and save yukpa but it looks like uh Menton and yukpa are safe for the time Bean I'm in Palm Desert just picked up here oh the wind yeah it's the wind died down it was windier earlier but that's pretty typical usually towards the uh late afternoon the wind dies down I've never seen so many I've never seen so much air supp for in my life but uh there's a lot of homes in the [Music] mountains and here comes another one [Music] what's up Grahams Beth I'll get to the chat in just a moment it's getting situated here real [Music] quick there's another one [Music] non-stop Chopper action hey Al soal if you're listening got to get down here I recorded the the uh you can get some good shots of the National Guard you see them driving by here and there [Music] [Music] yeah hang tight just a moment I got to uh oh there's two Choppers in the distance there I just got a text a friend and a relative of mine got to text him the link give me just one moment once again Mentone appears to be safe I don't see any smoke or Flames towards Mento e [Music] yeah so just about every minute or so there's a helicopter flying overhead air support is really heavy today it's a good thing of course hope you're all doing well once again if you're just joining this is a little update stream not going to be live very [Music] long I'm going to try before I end the stream I'm going to try to get to the lakes to where the the Choppers are filling up water so shout out to Hill Pink Hill pink you were first solo good to see you bicam salty pug Grahams Beth yeah I hope they can get it out too Amy happy birthday Amy and Lacy longtime no see free Eric Brandt we got princess in here we got solid jetto welcome Violet my number one mod my only mod I think bam cam d daa d wedge be careful yeah I'm pretty safe here and I'll show you some more Cho reaction stay out Gravity Hill these kind of remind me of mosquitoes with that big hose hanging down [Music] and over that little Hill right there there are three Lakes it's called the aypa regional park if you're if you're curious you could Google Maps it and it's for a small city they're fairly large lakes there's fishing there I don't think there's any boating and by the way I in the night time you can't really see these homes but there's a fairly large home right there so there's several homes on that bluff but so far they I think they're okay when are they going to get air conditioning for the UPS drivers that's what I really want to know now back back in the distance you could see the smoke from the uh I guess there's a fire in the San Gabriel area so we're east of Los Angeles uh straight ahead about 60 Mi or so 60 70 mil you'll get to La and so yeah those aren't clouds that's that's smoke from a different [Applause] fire and I'm there's another Chopper coming I'm pretty sure all that smoke right there is coming from that Direction coming this way that's from a different fire so there are three that might be from the Orange County fire so there are three major fires going on right now all in about a 60 70 M radius so they're going to the lake to get a refill and another one's headed to the fire wow they're they're really they're really doing a good job protecting Big Bear and Running Springs there's another one I lost count but my guess is there's five maybe six Choppers in rotation right now and luckily there's a nearby water source in those Lakes so they don't have to uh drain swimming pool you don't want that if you're just joining this is a quick update stream and I saw some Choppers I I wasn't going to go live I figured it's something interesting you don't see Choppers flying by but as often it's not an everyday occurrence but uh I mainly doing a quick stream for anyone local in the aypa OR Mone area that's concerned where the fire is headed and um no smoke towards menone so I guess that one got snuffed out there's a little hot spot right there headed towards Uka but uh you know the fire would have to go down the hill cross the highway and if that Hill catches on fire then that's when uh North or upper ukai but we'll be affected there'll probably be evacuations if that happens we got two Choppers coming at the same [Music] [Music] time I'll get to the chat in a minute I'm in the San Gabriel Valley Smoke is yeah smoke is the [Music] worse and those paper mask don't work yeah there's that's the smoke from the San Gabriel Valley right there paper master don't work you practically need a respirator yeah if they don't if they don't put that fire out probably by late tonight tomorrow morning it'll it'll creep down that little [Music] mountain if the wind picks up and might catch that on fire and then we got homes right there several homes [Applause] I do have unfortunately I have somewhere at uh like an hour from now got residents here checking it out so right over that little Hill those are those Three Lakes it's called yukpa Regional Park this is if you're just joining if you've been here the whole time it just sounds like I'm repeating myself we're on Bryant and Juniper and got a car stopped in the middle of the road taking a picture I take that back he's in a he's off to the edge of the road all right here's another [Music] Chopper there's probably five or six Choppers it seems like there's a lot more than there are probably because they can that lake is so close they could fill up really quickly so they're just constantly going back and forth and there's tens of thousands of homes I think 65,000 homes that they're trying to protect in Big Bear hence the [Applause] uh massive massive air support today and all the people in Mone are probably like last night we didn't yesterday we didn't get one helicopter to save to save Menon but you know that I guess they need to allocate their resources to where there's the most homes and there's three in the sky and one shot right there that truck wasn't in the way the two just went over the hill I think there's a UFO up there I don't know if you can see that all right here comes this Chopper I'll catch up with the chat once I capture this one [Music] [Music] [Music] look you can see them go over the hill and dip down they're descending into the lake right there to scoop up see that I don't know if that the if the lake is closed but it won't hurt to try I'm going to try to I would love to get to be there right on the uh shore of the lake and watch these Choppers in action okay I'm going to set this down for a second get a good angle and I'll see what you guys are saying that Smoky look in the sky says Angel good to see you there's tons of UFOs up there more at night I I believe you my niece lives in Highland Highland I'm pretty sure Highland's safe so that's good news for your knes and you that white fence is where Gravity Hill is go hug I'll check it out maybe Hill pink the closest freeway U would be the 210 the 210 Freeway and the 10 freeway as [Music] well Rick those buckets hold 2600 gallons of water [Music] you wouldn't think so it's a little deceiving I mean there little bag they look small from from down here I just assumed there'd be maybe 500 gallons maybe 1,000 I don't know good to see you rich I hope you and Max are well says Rich yeah let's go in here Gram's best has got to be typical end of Summer Event I know right hill hill pink said the airport fire in OC has not entered Riverside County that's good daa says hi Violet do they have the superp trator chos here's another Chopper what's weird is is when I'm zoomed out it loses focus when I zoom in it it's more clear so the did you say there's 2600 gallons in that little bag here's another little bag you can tell the bag's empty cuz it's swaying in the wind it's like a teabag [Music] oh another one wow this should be a sigh of relief if you live in Big Bear or Running Springs they are hitting in the fire hard no air no airplanes yet is probably because of the rugged terrain you don't want to fly airplanes that close into to uh the side of the mountain all right once again if you're just joining this is a quick update stream if you're local maybe in Curious where the fire is headed uh Menton is safe No Smoke uh that's Yuka Yuka safe if that fire goes down this little mountain and across Highway 38 there's a road going through there and a wash so if it gets windy and the fire jumps over there then uh it's going to be in upper ukpa and the north the north bench is what they call it it's a some type of big Earth moving machine I did see the National Guard vehicle it had a huge machine gun on the top and uh maybe it's to uh deter the looters or to take care to take care of the looters but yeah I mean any resources are definitely welcome machine guns are not one two three yeah I'm counting four or five helicopters again it just seems it's an illusion that it seems like a lot because they're just going back and forth so frequently and last I check the fire has not reached Big Bear yet but uh they're trying to prevent that from happening it was windy earlier but the wind died down and there's a chopper kind of hovering over that Hill way back there and they disappeared all right I can't stay live much longer so I want to see if I can get to that Lake before I end the stream there's the Sun get a better shot over here of the Sun it's not every day you could stare directly into the sun so before I end the stream I'm going to going to drive down there see if I can see the National Guard oh look at this [Music] [Music] and that's nice view from up here you see all the way to Fontana and Ontario and there's the there's a tanker coming in about 5 minutes thanks I'll stick around five minutes that's the Angeles National Forest right there and so that that plume of smoke is coming from the LA area and you'd think these are all clouds there's not a there's not a cloud in the sky um and what's crazy is see the smoke right there the wind the wind's going that way so all this smoke cover right here luckily it's pretty high in the atmosphere that's all from the or Orange County Fire probably this Orange County is kind of in that direction so you have this this is all smoke above me Violet suit good afternoon up hug sure you want to see the National Guard they got big guns no the guns aren't for me they're for the looters if you boost up the resolution by clicking the three dots or going to the settings on YouTube yeah from the regional park are you familiar with okay yeah there's like three there's like three little Lakes right over that Hill okay yeah all right thank you at least it's not uh swimming pools [Music] [Music] CH that's a cool little trailer by the way vintage oh I missed it it was dipping down I'll wait for the water taker actually I need to get caught up with chat real quick all right what did I miss what did I miss play of shrimp the tanker head is to rning Springs in said okay thank you Wildlife wander welcome busy but will yourself Labs have an updated is 151 getting there slowly Wanda is violet Kevin S good to see you Crest line I don't think so I think it for some I haven't heard one thing about Crest line I think what happened is highway I don't think it crossed Highway [Music] 18 I mean it might have like behind Walmart somewhat I wonder if they wave to each other oh man there's three right next to each other good thing I'm not standing under that those weeds there's going to be a strip of weeds that'll be really happy there's going to be a big green streak going through there pretty soon in the next few days but this is this is the kind of brush that's burning it's like tumble weeds other types of brush this would be natural and then there's uh see that tree right there so imagine the mountain being full of those types of shrubby trees and even this hill is very dry and it has a lot of vegetation a lot of fuel I think that Chopper is going to refuel at the San Bernardino airport I'm not zoomed in so I know you can't see it but let me get caught up real quick how big the fire is oh jeez maybe someone here can can type that in uh 70,000 Acres I don't know I did hear last night it was 5% contained good to see you Little Orphan 3,320 lbs says David welcome Sebastian it is getting insane SoCal news Outlet you should get down here maybe come tomorrow in the daytime the Choppers will probably be just as heavy diesel good to see you does the smoke smell like money believe it or not I can't smell the smoke because really lucky with the way the wind's [Music] gone jeez how many how many uh how many blades does that Chopper have eight all right I'm going to head to the lake just want to give really quick shout [Music] outs MSX L3 National Guards Deo four Blackhawks I heard about that C130 wow I want to see a Blackhawk uneasy Rider why does the sun look Brown exactly cuz there's like I'm in the shade it seems like I'm in the shade but uh the uh the smoke is actually giving me the shade right now ET says be safe welcome ET this day and age this Gravity Hill andil Filmore Califor off the 126 Gravity Hill jimz where's this at this is I'm well physically standing in Uka but the fire is headed towards Big Bear no no news on the cause of the fire no news Violet yes Bryant and Juniper thank you for doxing me just kidding I dox myself Bryant and Juniper license plate number 5 E3 I'm I'm messing with you I'm totally messing with you okay one last shot of the plume of smoke coming from the LA area different fire and in case you missed it earlier um so that's another fire [Music] there and all the smoke is coming from Orange County which is in that g enal Direction so it looks there's the smoke blocking the sun it looks really gray and again that's those aren't there's not a cloud in the sky actually not if you look down towards La that's what the sky is supposed to look like see that and everything you see in the sky that's not blue is is smoke but again I don't smell smoke at all right now I'm just really lucky with uh I'm really lucky that the wind isn't blowing any of the smoke in this Direction all right last shot then I'm going to try to go uh get access to the lake I don't think it's going to happen but I'll give it a shot before I end the stream so I do have to be somewhere right after this wonder what that would feel like if it was dropped on a human what's that 2600 gallons there's a fire truck that's from Redlands by the way all right so this is where I'll be heading in a minute look check this out they're going to dip down right over that Hill there's three little Lakes and there's like a 99% chance that I'm not going to get in but we'll hey it won't hurt to try it won't hurt to try or the alternative is I could climb that little Hill right there but I don't think I'll make it this crap so dry it's going to be a little shaky while I transfer to the uh windshield mount [Music] here is just nonstop so maybe people living up in the mountains can breathe a side of relief after seeing this all right I better I better get going or I'll be here all day cuz they they they're just non look at this all right all right I got to go all right we're going to go to the windshield mount going to see if we can get to that little Lake and tonight I'm going to look on uh Google Google satellite view Google Earth and see if there what's the uh if the park if the access to the lake is closed I'm going to see if there's a little road or Trail some alternative way [Music] I don't need to get like right next to the lake but I'd be happy to be somewhere where there's just a little View and by the way the Lake's only 5 minutes away or less millions of living creatures are being burned to death right now oh I know that's that's very sad I'm an animal lover as you all are as well oh come on did you have to turn left right now come on come on all right let's go oh that smoke is getting really black right now where are the tanks and machine guns I did see one earlier I'll have to uh upload it later and I highly I highly doubt jeez there's a lot of cars I highly doubt I will be streaming tonight but I will check it out if it's getting if it's getting worse I'll stream it but that's one of the reasons I wanted to do a quick update now ay and Dan couldn't survive the Jesus good Watchers I can't it's too hard to read the chat okay we'll be at the lake in a few minutes One Step too far he's gone hey Paul doing a quick stream Paul want to show the helicopters helicopters are really attacking the fire hard to uh save Big Bear they didn't care about about Mentone last night when uh the fire was headed towards Mento but you know just kidding they don't fly at night if anybody knows a way to get to a a place or a trail where you can you can see down into the Lakes what I'm trying to do now of course is try to get uh some footage of the helicopter scooping up water in the lake but I'm I'm assuming they closed they closed the park cuz they don't want people in there with all that helicopter activity but you never know and uh I don't have time time today but if there's a way I could easily somehow get to a spot where you can just view the lake from up above I I don't know if that's possible but I look get it bonfire at Mone Beach last night was the best chance for that but Mento and safe now the beach is going to stay a beach to the left of me is What's called the north bench it's a like a upscale community in this city in yo so let's hope let's hope the Fire doesn't get there there's a street sweeper Med I just saw a banner promoting uh there's some American flag flag there's some blue line Flags there's some fire department flags on that fence behind me okay so the hills to the right there's three little that's where the three little Lakes are is kind of within those Hills for right by sters go pug welcome are you saying are you right by Staters or that was me driving by you got to love Stater Brothers but I will say the rotisserie chicken and Stater Brothers is useless compared to what you can get at Costco or Sam's Club okay to the right is a Regional Park which again 99% chance they're not going to let me in it says the pool is closed e all right so I was wrong okay great he gave me I got a little tip though so give me one second I'm working against the clock too but hold on he gave me the name of the street where I could possibly get access just a minute okay I got a really good tip so they're getting they're not getting water from the Lakes themselves but from the reservoir that supplies the Lakes whatever that means and I got the street where I could possibly possibly get some footage so I'm checking it out right now craft and Reservoir thank you diesel knows everything it's close let's go we are 2 miles away for if you're just [Music] joining this stream is to give a little status on the fire as it pertains to the uh Thea community and it looks like eipa is safe so far there are about five CH big choppers getting water from the a reservoir in Yuka and that's what I'm trying to locate so I could get some interesting shots also if you're just joining Mentone looks like they saved Mentone there's no smoke anywhere near Mone right now and there's still a 90 95.8% chance that they block the road towards the reservoir but there's only one way of finding out where are all these car trucks going never seen it so busy before I mean I don't just using logic I don't I don't see them needing to block the road because helicopters don't drive so you know they I'm sure they could block the sky [Music] right this is where the rich people live in Uka it's called the north bench I think that guy looked really uh he was grimacing oh no they blocked the road well I see a lake no trespassing what does that mean okay I'm looking at a map because you gave me the name of two streets and I can see the Choppers are kind of to the left of me filling up so I'm looking at a map right now actually let me get off the stupid dirt road oh okay don't know where to go now that's a huge house I don't like the looks of this go pug go thanks diesel ha ay1 two3 what's up one 123 w can't see your comment okay so that road I was on was it's called Lake View and it it does live up to its name because you could actually see the lake from there but I guess they want to they want to protect the fish all right good news is we are headed towards where the Choppers are headed e that so yeah I'm there bir there's what it's supposed to be the sun waiting for the chopper is this where the helicopters are coming there's a way to get pedestrian G right here because this would be a nice hike just to go through here but instead I think here you could you could probably just drive right to the reservoir well they don't want the water guys don't want anybody going up there fishing or anything like that so they don't want no vehicles up there but just a pedestrian gate they got hiking trails all through here like oh is that guy on the hiking trail right yeah oh you know if you want hey see you see the water Gully right there yeah you can crawl underneath the fence right there yeah I'm not kidding you and go up in the hills yeah and it comes see right here you see the gly right here right here at the top yeah a concrete Gully it runs all the way to the bottom right down to here and you can crawl underneath the fence and go right over where he's at cool that guys thank you very much that guys very determined yeah that is so the way he got to the walking trail was he probably went like all the way there and around right back down street but if you go under this this little fence you could just go into the trail right there see right there at the very bottom yeah see where their their black fence meets up yeah right there there's about a twoot 3ot uh hole underneath the fence I see yeah as long as I'm not on like their their property or their house you know I'll check it out thank you the helicopters just go home all of a sudden or what might have went to ref shoot so I just get here but that's okay cuz I need to go in a minute anyways I'm just for tomorrow I let me put oner brain for a second okay it doesn't say no if an if an animal can go under there I can uh there's a walking trail right there so it's not like prohibited property that's private property I can't go on there I think I'm good to go I think I'm good to go oh God but I'm in a hurry I really have to get something [Music] here long would it to get a paved road that goes up right yeah on that goes 10 minutes the PVE Road like not anyone can get on it right it's just how do you access the PVE Road right here where here yeah you have to take the walking trail you have to go under the fence oh I I I thought you meant like a PVE Road where I could drive my car no there's no driving up there all right thank you okay I'm going to have to come back to be home and proba knows what happen um so look like hiking hi but ch there's another one [Music] coming holy should can't up minutes I bring some water see iess [Music] Che stream or something [Music] I can't see my stream on my other phone all I see is a black screen can you guys uh I'm looking at the chat right now on my main phone oh wait here I think I'm [Music] back there's another gate I might be able to crawl under a child can crawl under that part see yeah imagine imagine the view of the Choppers from that backyard right there what is this it's a vacant lot I'm going to check out the view real quick before I go home is the stream back up yeah I was buffering huh okay oh glad I'm back big beard Dam just got mandatory evacuation it's better now that was a bad spot yeah sney areas of Yu Town that's funny to rich guy put the UFO fhe super choppy super choppy super choppy signal calling the fence okay I think the Signal's a little better now give me just a sec there's a little I just want to check out this little piece of land right here you now I won't be able to see the reservoir from here but what oh it's really good hold on I forgot my hot spot give me just a second [Music] is [Music] this is a killer View hey ELO Cal if you're watching you got to get your butt out here you'd be out here all day if you don't know Al soal loves Choppers oh those people just walked up the trail right there look but it almost looks like they had to walk on someone's property to get up there I'm not going to do that today I'm just kidding Happy Taco to I don't know where I'm at oh here comes the chopper rising from the Mansion whoa wow all right I found the spot this is all my land right here going to bring a a nice chair bring my tripod and some bail money so I know the Choppers are exciting but let's let's not forget to uh have our uh thoughts and
