Fires Will Be Lit In Pacific Palisades As Part Of Federal Investigation This Week


Fire may be visible between Skull Rock and Green Peak, close to what is believed to be ground zero of the massive and deadly Palisades Fire.

The public is being asked to avoid the Temescal Ridge Trail in the Santa Monica Mountains tonight through Thursday while the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives conducts controlled fire testing. “While this scientific testing will periodically include open flame in a small area that may be visible at a distance, it does not involve the burning of vegetation,” Humphrey said. There will be no provisions for media or public access due to the terrain and logistics, Humphrey said, adding that aircraft/drone pilots were instructed to follow any FAA-issued restrictions for the area.
