BD,
Team Bruin and TeamScottLaurel, all of you went up last year when there was a fire to the west of LP about this time last year.
You might be able to judge the smoke elevation based on your experience.
Hopefully, a monsoon (long shot) will snuff out the fire or some kind of weather front will blow the smoke to the south.
Anyhow, have fun up there. In the meantime, if you want any updates on conditions during your jaunt the week of July 24, I will leave you a message on your cellphones. If you have texting capabilities, I will do that as well.
