Palomar Mountain News

Growing up in Julian, and now living in the city of San Diego, Mike and Nicole have felt the need for some place to get away from the busyness of the city.  They want their kids to have a connection to land like they did, with time to play in the dirt and climb trees. Their kids are 4- and 2-years old plus another on the way! They plan to use the cabin as much as they can and also will rent it out so that other families can create lasting memories in the mountains, too. Read More…

We are burning back out on the Palomar Divide and in Fry Creek above Lower French Valley.

If anyone has concerns or questions they can call me at 619-209-1414

Thank you!

Such a beautiful snow day!  We had a gentle snow with very little of that promised wind.  Happy to see the blossoms on our pear tree seemed to have made it!  The apple trees hadn’t bloomed yet, so maybe we’ll have apples this year for the festival!

With that sun out, it is melting fast.  Very good news for the newest cabin owner on Palomar!  Escrow closed yesterday and they plan to live here full time.  Carpet cleaning and moving days are carefully scheduled around this blanket of snow and our next storm-on-the-way!

Yes, we have snow!  Smokey is very happy today!  I’ll have more pix for you later but for all of you off the mountain, we do have a couple inches up here already and more promised.  Maybe up to 11 inches today?  We’ll see!
