Missing person near Buckhorn Campground and Trailhead in #AngelesNationalForest (PCT) -- anyone recognize this picture?
3D view of current terrain (4/8/2021 satellite image) looking towards Mt. Waterman from the South (39 is the road on the right, Angeles Crest behind the hills on the top side of the image)
3D view of the current terrain around Mt. Waterman (4/8/2021 satellite image) looking South towards Mt. Waterman (Angeles Crest Freeway the road at top of image).
Hmmm.... view from 34 18 52.67 N 117 54 34.92 W
I called and emailed the LASD SAR team. We'll see if they follow up.

Since people are asking, how to geolocate a #hiker given only a general location and a grainy photo of their legs hanging off a cliff (thread) 1/x Image
1. Identify the general area (if available) of where the hiker was known to be. In this case, the location was near Mt. Waterman (a well known area in the Angeles Crest, popular with hikers). 2/x ImageImage
2. If someone is lost along the Angeles Crest (if you keep tabs on the posts of @SEBLASD they post regularly on rescues), you find they are either NORTH of the Angeles Crest Highway or SOUTH of the Angeles Crest Freeway. How do we figure out which one here? 3/x Image

Widespread reports of a #meteor or #space junk re-entering the atmosphere in the Pacific Northwest (#WA #OR #Seattle), so checked GOES-West and there *is* an interesting cloud that appeared recently. (upper left of this image)

I've recently become involved in my city's climate planning efforts--asked to add my input into city efforts to develop a climate change mitigation plan. It's been informative, yet, illustrates the dilemma we have in making substantive progress against a very hard problem. 1/x
As someone who has not been engaged in politics (hate conflict, hate sitting in meetings, frustrated by choosing this by consensus vs. the best technical solution, and frustrations of how slow moving it is, disillusionment with politicans), I have dreaded getting involved. 2/x
But, I found that I'm a little "younger" than the typical folks involved in our city planning (not all that young, in my 40's... but still younger than most of those involved)--and I feel I'm pretty informed, especially on the technology front--so I felt I should engage. 3/x

There are lots of things that will pay off in #California as #preparation for upcoming heatwaves and wildfires, *now* (when it's cool, and when it's not during fire season) is the time to get them done.
1. Improve the insulation in your house. Most older California homes are under-insulated. Add a layer of insulation to your attic. Tax deductible, usually, pays for itself. Can dramatically lower your temps. during heatwaves.
2. Make adjustments to make your landscaping more fire resistant. Lots of resources from CALFIRE here: readyforwildfire.org/prepare-for-wi…
