I've been checking for caches around my area this last week. I live in a part of SoCal where the fires have hit the area pretty hard. There are quite a few caches out there that are currently out of commission because of these fires. If you live in SoCal, just make sure you know where you are going, check on geocaching.com to make sure that the caches are still up and don't go out there if the air quality is bad. Be careful and happy caching.
