Palomar Mountain News

Palomar Conference Center is such a fun place to work. Hard work. Great rewards!  More info and news here.

We forgot!  Just in case there are some of you Mountain News friends that may be in line to be an hour late to where you’re headed, here is your ‘save’.  Then when you have a chance, you might change out those smoke detector batteries and you’ll be all set!

The Palomar Mountain Volunteer Fire Department will be conducting the annual Burn Institute Boot Drive this Saturday at the Summit area to benefit the “Camp Beyond The Scars” program to send burn-injured children to camp.

All proceeds benefit the Burn Institute so if you see your firefighters at the Summit with a boot in hand this Saturday please be generous with your donations. Read More…

Going down the East Grade, we stopped for a few minutes while a huge crane was getting in place to set some new poles.  We were told that SDG&E is replacing wooden poles with steel poles, across the mountain.  The plan is to have a safer situation during fires, storms and high winds. Read More…

When you’d like a bagpiper for a special event, we have a new addition to our ‘Mountain Musicians’ on MyPalomarMountain.com.  Benjamin Scott Johnston is a professional bagpiper out of San Diego.  Walt and Rosemary Johnston’s son, Ben has grown up with many fond memories of coming to their family cabin on Palomar.  His contact info and more is found on our Musicians page.

With excellent level access from a plowed road, this cabin is one of the simplest properties to get to for year-round fun.  There is a price adjustment now to make it even more attractive.  Check out the Dream Catcher on the Cabins page, then let’s bundle up and go see!

Big storm heading our way – it will be fun to see how much snow we really get!

The mountain is painted with so many early daffodils. Picked a couple bouquets today with this promised rain and maybe a bit of snow.

The wildlife sure seem excited about the change in the weather!   Here are just a few of the flock of about 40 turkeys down in our orchard today.  Later about 200 pigeons flew in and out too fast for my camera.

Stoke up your fire!
