Chinnebee/odem trail closure

[stevebo]

Hey guys, I  just got back from Cheah------there are signs  everywhere letting people know that  the Chinnabee and Odem trails are closed due to wild fires.  I spent the night at Mcdill point---from the overlook/cliff, you could see a fire in the distance-big plumes of smoke on the horizon.    Also, there were several helicopters buzzing around the area.  It looked to me like the fire was quite a ways off .   That being said, Ive never seen prettier weather or scenery-----its stunning!  (one of the best trips Ive ever had!)

The NFS is doing some controlled burns over the next few weeks.

My girlfriend and me are planning a november 12-14 weekend Pinhoti/Chinnabee/Skyway loop. Will everything be a go by then as far as controlled burns? Im just keeping my fingers crossed for some rain that week.  Thanks

I was planning to do the 17 mile loop from Adams Gap to Chinnabee to Skyline this weekend.  Is the trail closed or open?
