Thank you!

Our partnership with the US Forest Service Law Enforcement is a deeply valued one to keep everyone safe in the Angeles National Forest.

Each day, we work together helping keep everyone safe or responding to medical emergencies. Yesterday, our station Captain, Ryan A. Vienna, personally thanked our US Forest Service Law Enforcement partners for their continued partnership after completing a hike with his dog Kilo at Switzer Falls.

Please follow safe hiking practices when visiting the Angeles National Forest.

On May 18, 2026 at 12:26p.m., the Angeles National Forest responded to a wildland fire at the B***o Canyon Shooting Park.

The fire quickly burned to the top of the ridgeline, and firefighters were able to stop the forward fire progression at 30 acres.

Working in extremely steep and rocky terrain, firefighters have reached 95% containment. Crews will continue to construct and improve fire containment lines as well as extinguishing smoldering vegetation within the fire perimeter.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

The B***o Canyon Shooting Park remains temporarily closed due to fire suppression efforts.

Visitors can contact the park directly at (626)910-1344 for more information regarding the facility and their re-opening. (https://burrocanyon.com/)
