Coming out of that turn (prior post), I zoomed in some to show the ridge above Carp looking toward the South. Nearer pix have less haze of course, so they've needed less tweaking. Burned across Camino Cielo, this part of the Thomas Fire in SB County is going to impact watersheds on both sides.

Here's a wider shot showing the wasteland around Jameson Reservoir with Carp greenhouses in the smoky distance (top).

Further to the West looking back we can see how they managed to stop it on the North slope of the Santa Ynez range, though it kept moving West on the North side of the riverbed.

Turning South across the ridge, another wide view shows a fraction of this massive burned area. It might not be possible even on a clear day, to see the whole thing except from the edge of space. Again, this is a wide shot from "only" two miles up.
