If I were to continue going straight, there is a bunch of country I could visit and I hope to explore more of this area some day.
But I took the road to the right. I had been up this road a little ways a few years back and had seen a lot of dozer work on fuel breaks and old fire breaks. I wasn’t sure what shape the road would be in but if things worked perfectly I could follow this set of roads out and loop back to the top of Burma Grade. And if it wasn’t in the cards, I would turn around and come back the same way I came in, all good exercise.

A wildfire broke out in Stanislaus National Forest near Yosemite National Park on Jan 19, 2021.PG&E Webcam
A wildfire ignited in the Stanislaus National Forest west of Yosemite on Tuesday had grown to 70 acres as of 4 p.m. and was producing heavy amounts of smoke, officials said.
The Abernathy Fire spread in a forested area west of Camp Mather, a camp that hundreds of San Francisco families enjoy every summer, in the Groveland Ranger District amid high winds. We expect as the winds die down the danger will decrease, said Diana Fredlund, a spokesperson for the Stanislaus National Forest.
