I may have neglected to mention that my wife plans to attend a well...she'll be riding her 2015 Indian Scout : ) The group may end up being on the small side either way, but at least we're all still going to have a great time!

That idahofireinfo map makes it look worse than it is. Most of the fires charted on the map are small to nonexistent (they map suspected hot spots as fires). Most of the big ones are farther north in Montana.
What I like to use is the FAA map that shows flight restrictions around fires that are big enough to actually require some air resources.

When I left last weekend there were a vast amount of air tankers and helicopters staged in the area. I'm hopeful that the picture will be looking much better in 3 weeks.

I live in SE Idaho, and the smoke is evident. Air looks like Los Angeles in the 70s

I found a couple of handy resources that I'll be consulting over the coming days leading up to the rally. Within this first link, which is excellent, there is a link to another handy online service called Wildfires Near Me. Between the two of them, I'm hoping to keep track of everything we need to know about any fires that could disrupt plans.

Smoke is very bad today. We have had less than 2mi. visibility over last 4 days due to fires, and now we have ash falling here in SE Idaho. I woke this morning, and saw that the car was covered in ashes. If this keeps up, I'm going to to cancel. I have respiratory issues; riding in this crap is no fun for me.

I'll be parking my tent at the Water's Edge RV Park and Pizzeria, about 3 miles north of 100 AW on U.S. 93. It looked like a nice place when I went by a few weeks back.

Sounds good. Plan on stopping by the resort after setting up camp. I will be posting more info soon on schedule/rides/etc.
