About a year after the untimely death of Bill “The Hotdog Man” Connell, 50-plus people gathered at the former site of his Surf Dog cart to unveil a memorial plaque lauding Connell’s contributions to veterans and his beloved customers. Connell, always generous with his opinions and his hotdogs, spent over 20 years holding court at the intersection of Bailard and Carpinteria avenues. During many of those years, he also traveled regularly to Sacramento to, as he put it, “rattle the cages” of lawmakers in a successful effort to exempt military veteran peddlers from sales tax.

For more photos of the memorial plaque ceremony, see page 3.

Ahhh, summer, the season of long days in the sand, flip-flops and cut-offs, and a slow pace that’s just right for vacation. Oh, wait, that was before you had a job you were expected to perform every day and kids who really don’t have a slow speed to shift into. And that, dear readers, is why summer camp was invented. So instead of spending the next couple months in blissful denial or in frenzied stress, just sit down with Coastal View News’ Summer Camp Guide and find a camp or two to fit the little people in your life.

Carpinteria may be small, but it’s big on opportunities to keep growing minds expanding and growing bodies in motion. And once you’ve got your summer plans nailed down, you can get back to reminiscing about those slow paced summers of yore.

Don’t let your eyes deceive you—a close look at this gray whale reveals that the image is made up of over 600 people crouched with their backs to the sky. The Art for the Sky event took place at Canalino School on April 6 and brought students and staff from both Canalino and Carpinteria Family schools out to the playing field to create an art piece that came together and drifted apart all within 15 minutes. Funded by Parents for Canalino and overseen by Oregon-based artist Daniel Dancer, the unique experience offered a lesson in perspective—sometimes it takes extra effort to see the big picture. In the case of the whale art, it took a view from a crane 80 feet in the air!

Going once, going twice…

Howard School teachers, from left, Angie Miller and Jen Gonzalez put themselves on the auction block at the school’s annual fundraiser held last weekend. The pair offered to take a student for a night out including dinner and a movie. It proved to be such a popular live auction item that the pair decided to offer a second evening out to raise more funds for the small private school housed on the Girls Inc. of Carpinteria campus. For more photos of the lively event, visit pages 16-17.

The Llama wins Coffee Madness

Proving that homegrown support can be the best advantage local businesses have, the Lucky Llama Coffeehouse ran away with the title in CVN’s March Coffee Madness competition.

Pictured, Kaytlyn Keiser, Ryan Moore, Eve Cowan and Marina Cline serve up the joe when the announcement was made. “People were fired up and voting,” said Ryan Moore, who owns the Llama with his wife Ashley. “The coolest part,” Moore continued, “is that corporate coffee doesn’t have as much of a stronghold in Carp.” Serving Dune Coffee, which is roasted in Santa Barbara just four- to five-days before serving, the Lucky Llama Coffeehouse seeks to provide its customers with the best coffee available in a pleasant atmosphere. Celebrating five-years in business on April 6, Moore said that the community’s support has been a great validation of what he and Ashley set out to do with the Lucky Llama Coffeehouse.

As readers can clearly see, Carpinteria Middle School sixth-graders had absolutely no fun whatsoever playing inner tube water polo during last Friday’s P.E. class held at the Community Pool. The young ladies tolerated the aquatic lesson—and even humored swim coach Morgan Youngs by posing for a photo—before returning to terrestrial life. CMS students, as well as thirdgraders from local public schools, spend hours in the pool developing water skills during the school year.

Fundraisers underway for Thomas victims

The Thomas Fire’s 281,000 acre rampage left a wake of destruction and hundreds of people without homes—some just outside Carpinteria city limits. To help fire victims, numerous local fundraisers have been scheduled.

Carpstrong T-shirts can be ordered for $25 with all proceeds benefiting the California Fire Foundation. Graphic artist Michael Bayouth donated the design, and Paul souza of sTP screen Printing donated his screens and time to print the shirts.

In a unique twist, souza incorporated Thomas Fire ash into the ink CarpStrong T-shirts can be ordered for he used to print the tree image on the $25 with all proceeds benefiting the shirt. To place an order, contact anCalifornia Fire Foundation. nette Fisher at lilmisg@hotmail.com Unity in the Community, an event hosted by CarpEvents, is set to take place on Friday, Jan. 5 in downtown Carpinteria.

Merchants will extend hours that evening, and the event aims to help local businesses recoup some lost sales from the fire. The Hospice Tree Lighting Ceremony—postponed from early December—will be held at 5:30 p.m. with hot chocolate and cookies for all. Following the Hospice ceremony, at 6:30 p.m., locals who stepped up to supply information and support during the Thomas Fire will be honored. The Carpinteria arts Center will host bands out of the Blue and south on linden between 7 and 10 p.m., while serving beer and wine. All funds raised will be contributed to the CARPSTRONG GoFundMe page to assist people affected by the fire.

Dishwalla will perform as a benefit on Saturday, Jan. 6 at 8 p.m. at The Alcazar Theatre, 4916 Carpinteria Ave. The Carpinteria-born multi-platinum selling band will take the stage as the first concert in the Alcazar Rises Benefit series with proceeds going to help victims of the Thomas Fire. Tickets are $40.

City seeks public input on marijuana regulations

porchsb.com

The City of Carpinteria is looking for the public’s opinion on how to regulate marijuana commerce. Approved by California voters in 2016, new state law will allow recreational cannabis businesses to obtain state licenses in 2018. a city moratorium passed earlier this year bans marijuana businesses from operating in Carpinteria, and city leaders wish to gauge the public’s interest in regulating marijuana business before codifying regulations. A survey that takes five to 15 minutes can be accessed through the home page of the city’s website, Carpinteria.ca.us. It has 15 questions divided into four subjects: cultivation, sales, manufacturing/processing and local impacts. all answers will be confidential, and responders do not need to be Carpinteria residents to take the survey.

Making spirits bright

Cocktails for a Cause organizers postponed their event by a couple weeks, staying true to the cocktail theme but redefining the cause.

Rather than benefiting the Carpinteria Arts Center, as originally promoted, the annual cocktail-making demo by mixologist Mandy Chinn raised funds to help local artist John Wullbrandt, who lost his art studio and archives in the Thomas Fire.

The always-popular fundraiser was standing room only, reported David Powdrell of the Carpinteria Arts Center. “We’re confident it will make a significant dent in helping John get the art supplies he needs to continue his lifelong quest to paint and inspire, particularly the youth in our community,” said Powdrell.

Dear Friends, The last few weeks have been a challenging time for our community with one of the most destructive and relentless wildfires in our state’s history.

We would like to express our gratitude to all the firefighters and first responders who have been working tirelessly to keep our community safe. Our thoughts and prayers are with these heroic individuals and their families. The spirit of resilience is powerful among our community, and we are proud to see everyone coming together during this time.

We also want to pause to acknowledge our supporters and partners who help make the Girls Inc. experience possible. Without each of you, Girls Inc. is unable to provide the life-changing experiences that ensure girls thrive. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all those who give of their time, talent, or treasure so girls grow up strong, smart, and bold.

Our partners are critical to ensuring that we provide robust and meaningful experiences – meeting girls where they are – and equipping them with the knowledge and information they need to break past barriers and succeed. They also help us provide girls with role models in various fields, who show our girls that they can set and achieve their goals, no matter how big or out of reach they may seem.

It takes all of us – working together – to ensure the success of our girls and our community.

Thank you for the role you play.

Warmest wishes for a safe and happy holiday, and a healthy New Year.

Onward,

Victoria Juarez Victoria Juarez

What a debt of gratitude we owe to the thousands of firemen and women who risked their lives to fight the historic Thomas Fire to a standstill in our back hills, thereby saving our community and other cities along the south coast from total devastation. We should especially recognize the enormous part our own fire department played in this drama.

To all the men and women of our local fire department we say thank you.

Gratitude also goes to our city officials and employees for all that they did to help fight this enormous conflagration.

In all my 76 years of living here, I have never seen such devastation so close to our community. What I did learn, as I am sure many others did, is how unprepared we were to handle such an emergency. I hope everyone learned as we did of how to be better prepared for the next crisis, including our first responders.

One good thing that came about was the installation of a temporary Particulate Matter monitoring station to monitor air pollution during the fire. Paradoxically, it wasn’t really needed—breathing was so difficult without a mask, and you couldn’t see 5 feet in front of you, so it was quite obvious that the air was noxious.

I have been advocating for years about having a permanent PM and ozone monitoring station right here in our community. The only station we have now is an ozone station located somewhere in the Gobernador Canyon. We should and must have a monitoring station here in our community to keep us informed about air pollution. Most of the time air pollution is invisible but just as deadly.

Now is the time to press our councilmen and city officials to provide us with some protection from air pollution.

by community consensus. The city could commission a competition from among our plethora of local skilled artists for their concepts, and the town could chose the winner.

I am extremely confident that, along with the many temporary signs and banners that are currently extolling our thanks, our grateful community would be more than supportive of raising the funds to enact this memorial. I know that I would want to be amongst the first to pledge financial support for this cause.

I would also like to propose that you give thought to naming any future street or public space in honor of Cory Iverson, the heroic firefighter who lost his life when he placed himself between our community and harm’s way. This is the least we can do to honor him and symbolically honor all who protected us in our direst hours of need.

Surely a permanent monument could be prominently displayed in a conspicuous area, such as near the flagpost at the intersection of Linden and Carpinteria avenues.

“Coco”

“Coco” is about a Mexican boy— Miguel (Anthon Gonzalez)—who desperately wants to be a musician but whose family won’t let him. His family won’t let him because way, way, way back—generations ago—his great-great-grandmother was abandoned by a musician who apparently thought his career was more important than hanging out with his wife and young daughter.

Nowadays, Miguel’s family makes shoes. No music. Just shoes. The only one who even remembers the old music man with whom everyone is so pissed is Miguel’s great-grandmother, Coco—who is also the musician’s daughter. Still, no music. Just shoes.

But Miguel isn’t having it. On the day of the Mexican holiday Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead), Miguel concludes that his great-great-grandfather (the musician) is none other than “the greatest living musician of all time,” Ernesto de la Cruz (Benjamin Bratt). So it turns out music is in Miguel’s blood! Forget shoes. Music is his destiny!

So Miguel figures it’s all right to steal Ernesto de la Cruz’s famous

guitar from his tomb in order to enter into a music competition. But it turns out it’s not all right. Apparently, you are not supposed to steal from the dead on Dia de Muertos.

Miguel is instantly transported to the realm of the dead. All of a sudden, he is walking among a bunch of skeletons. Luckily, these skeletons are harmless and, for the most part, rather pleasant. They’re just walking around enjoying their special day.

But Miguel is no skeleton. So he needs to get back to the land of the living. To do this, he has to go to the Land of the Dead and get a blessing from one of his dead family members. That would be easy enough, except that everyone in his family hates music. So they’ll only give Miguel a blessing on the condition that he never plays music again. Bummer.

However, Miguel figures there’s at least one dead family member who will bless his passion for music …

He doesn’t have much time. But Miguel figures it’s worth the risk, since, for him, a life without music is no life at all.

“Coco” is vibrant. Its colors and shapes and music and dancing and characters and traditions all dazzle the senses. This movie is, at every turn, charismatic. It is, for example, easy to see why Ernesto de la Cruz might be so beloved, and it is even easier to see why Miguel is Cruz’s heir in at least that regard. Miguel’s expressiveness—the subtle mannerisms and gentle, nuanced emotive responses he conveys—is a feat for all involved—from the voice actor, to the animators, to the writers and on down the line.

I suppose it is a little risky making a kids’ movie about a bunch of dead people—rickety old skeletons who

But it works. The way “Coco” folds in the tradition of Dia de Muertos is rich, interesting and a ton of fun.

The story itself is a throwback to older Pixar movies. But as long as they keep taking risks like these, and cashing in big time, this studio will continue to thrive.

“Coco” is rated PG for thematic elements.

After the fire: Franklin Trail revealed CVN

Happy new year & THank you for all your supporT THis year!

Farm to Table Chef’s Seasonal Specials Sustainable Meats & Seafood Extensive Wine List

FRANKLIN TALES

ORDINARY PEOPLE CLIMBING TO NEW HEIGHTS

DEBBIE MURPHY Kimberly Fly, my daughter, whom I interviewed last year, was invited by two separate press personnel to hike the trail immediately after the Thomas Fire. Since she had firsthand knowledge, I decided to interview her again.

What were your thoughts when the mountains were on fire?

I had had the thought for the last couple of years that we would have this happen. I had read about the Romero Fire, and I was interested in knowing more about the two firefighters who had died in Santa Monica Canyon and why that happened and why the fire traveled so far. I knew that with the brush on the third phase 30-feet deep in some areas, that a fire couldn’t be stopped. I feared that all that fuel would eventually hurt our homes. I wasn’t surprised when the fire happened, yet amazed at how masterfully the firefighters worked with the fire to keep it out of our community.

When did you hike the trail?

The first time up the trail, I went right after the fire passed through Carpinteria and was burning above Montecito. I was really relieved by what I saw. The damage wasn’t as bad as I had imagined to the actual trail. The Franklin Trail is unique in some ways as it is all exposed, rather than being in a valley with rocky hills above it, it is on the face of the mountain for the most part. Though the brush is gone, we will be safe from falling boulders that might be a problem on other trails so I could see that it is going to be OK. What did it look like?

Naked, yet it also had this beautiful, exposed red cliff that I had never seen before. One of the things I noticed is that there is a game trail that runs down the face of the Franklin that is probably a bear trail. With all the brush before you could see what looked like tunnels into the bushes or maybe sleeping areas for animals, yet now the trail is just exposed and it is clearly a game trail. I saw a lot of birds, some animal tracks and even a rabbit. I have heard from others that they have seen lots of tracks in the ash in some areas and even sightings of bear tracks farther up the trail by Sutton Creek. There are several plants still there. The plant with the berries that taste like lemonade is there, charred, yet it will come back. Some cactus looks melted, yet others are fine.

I was strangely happy to see that poison oak had survived. The old timers’ bench is there (about a mile up), Frank’s bench is OK (about two miles up) and I’ve heard that even second bench survived (about 3 miles up). The wind had clearly blown from the north cleaning the ash down to the dirt from certain areas making it a clean trail. Wind will make a huge difference.

How far have you gone on the trail?

I went just as far as the bear tree, the large sycamore in the valley down the hill from the gate. The sycamore has

Frank’s bench survived the Thomas Fire, but the chaparral all around it burned.

been burned at the base and we will just have to see if it survives. There are green shrubs on one side of it, so perhaps the fire was not terribly hot right there in that valley.

There was talk during the fire that bulldozers had gone up the trail. Did you see signs of that?

There is a small section below the “old timer’s bench” where you can see bulldozer tracks. They clearly cut a firebreak line. Yet the actual trail was marked and the firebreak is just a new part of the landscape.

Is the trail open?

There is a letter posted from the Forrest Service stating that the forest service portion of the trail is closed. I believe that would mean that it is closed after the 5.2mile marker. I urge hikers to pay attention and obey the signs.

What else would you like to say?

We are fortunate. Although the brush and trees on the trail are burnt, the trail is in great shape. We are going to see amazing fire follower flowers like the fire poppy that we have never seen. People are concerned that there is not as much shade, yet vines will most likely grow up the burnt branches and trees and we may have shade sooner than we think.

I want to say it’s going to be OK. I don’t want to scare people. The Franklin Trail means so much to so many people.

We all have deeply connected to the land and ourselves by hiking it. The first and second phases of the trail will be OK. It will be blossoming after the first rain.

Personally, I grieve for the third phase.

I was privy to a photo of it after the fire came through and it has taken me a week to process what I saw. Without the brush and trees to hold the dirt, that trail is just missing in many areas of the third phase.

I loved its steep climbs, gnarly poison oak and the possibility of running into a bear.

At the first chance I get, I will be back to the 5.2-mile marker to explore. With all my heart, I want it back the way it was.

We recently raised over $7,500 for the third phase, yet at this point the money will simply go to restore the lower trail. So many people have asked, “When can we start working on the trail?” I’m sure we will start trail work parties soon. We just need the permission to do the work. There is an aggressive team of people who want to restore our trail and other trails as soon as possible: the trail stewards, the Santa Barbara Trails Council and the Los Padres Forest Association. I know we will all be working together.

2017. Wow. A challenging year to say the least. Outside of Carpinteria city limits we witnessed a tumultuous presidency, tragic mass killings and hurricanes wreaking billions in damages. And all the while we stayed somewhat safe and cozy in our Van Wingerden cocoon of an idyllic beach town. Then there was the Thomas Fire, the largest fire on leaves water board 7 record in California, that burned right into our backyard, dousing residents in anxiety, filling our air with noxious smoke, and smashing our sense of security. But we came together as a community, and now we look to 2018 with optimism, even if it’s based on the premise “it can’t be as bad as 2017.” Stroll through 2017 with CVN. We give you a year in covers and some of our favorite quotes from the news of the last 12 months.

These common resolutions all got checked off for the 80 folks who participated in the First Day Hike from Carpinteria State Beach to Rincon and back on Jan. 1.

This year photographer David Powdrell joined the crew with wife Valerie, whose pedometer read 6 miles at the close of the loop. More photos of the fun afternoon can be found on page 14.

Placed to prevent damage and erosion from big winter surf and storm surges each fall after Thanksgiving, the sand berm goes up and is taken down by bulldozer (operated this year by Justin Wright of Mac Brown Excavating). The berm program began in the early 1980s and has served as a model for other cities, City of Carpinteria Director of Parks and Recreation Matt Roberts said. In its 30-plus years, only two incidents have caused major damage to structures along Sandyland Road, though numerous storms have flooded other coastal communities in that timeframe. The work takes approximately 40 hours and costs roughly $36,000. Unless late season storms threaten the beachfront, the berm is flattened out each March before the first grunion run, making room for blankets and umbrellas on “the world’s safest beach.”

To the left, the new bridge will punch Via Real through to Casitas Pass Road. Highway 101 traffic will be re-routed to the portions of bridges now under construction to the left of existing lanes. After that, the existing highway bridges will be demolished and rebuilt. When both sides are combined, the new roadway will accommodate three lanes of traffic in each direction. The new bridges over Carpinteria Creek are 10-feet higher than before so that 100-year flood waters can travel downstream without obstruction.

Your Carpinteria General Plan

Small cities across the nation are facing unprecedented challenges. New and growing service demands and limited resources are testing these cities’ ability to meet the service needs of their communities.

In California there are nearly 500 incorporated cities, the median population is just under 31,000. Of these, 144 California cities, about 30%, have fewer residents than Carpinteria’s 13,943.

Small cities like Carpinteria have traditionally been responsible for such services as police and fire, planning & zoning, animal control, parks, and public works.

Counties are effectively an arm of state government and a part of a system that delivers certain programs and services to all Californians. Those include health and welfare services as well as the criminal justice system.

However, with shrinking state and federal funding, small cities and counties are doing more collaborating in order to ensure that service needs of their mutual constituents are being met. Traditional city and county roles are being emphasized less with more focus on cooperative work that can meet community needs.

In Carpinteria, cooperative efforts include the City, community organizations and the county working to maintain branch library services and to address housing and health and human service needs. This includes service demands created by a growing number of people that are homeless in Carpinteria.

Also, climate change is bringing more

severe weather events, wildfires and floods to the state. Carpinteria will need to plan for rising sea levels and expand its emergency preparedness and response programs in order to mitigate the hazards likely to occur in our area and promote recovery after a disaster.

As significant as these external influences will be in shaping Carpinteria’s future, demographic and generational change are expected to be even more influential. The passing of time will require new stewards of Carpinteria’s spaces and places. To maintain and improve upon what’s valuable about Carpinteria, newcomers and next generations will need points of reference and guidance about its unique characteristics. To sustain the institutions and values that are at the heart of Carpinteria will require greater civic engagement and more diverse voices.

This brings me to the General Plan.

Cities are required to prepare and adopt General Plans that meet certain minimum legal requirements and in this way it provides a legal framework for city decision-making on land use and development matters. More broadly, General Plans are a context for implementing a vision about how the community will grow. Today, the need for cities to respond to new and changing service demands, such as I describe above, are reshaping General Plans too. It’s now common in city General Plans to find policies around issues such as community health, education, and civic engagement.

Carpinteria’s General Plan update process is an opportunity for a community dialogue about the aspects of the built, natural and social environment that are important and make Carpinteria unique, and how to protect or promote them.

This type of work cannot be done in a vacuum by City staff or consultants. A General Plans is, ultimately, the community’s plan and the process and resulting document is influenced greatly by the

Hungry as a Ram

Competition postponed for soccer team with big potential

BY ALONZO OROZCO The Cate School girls soccer team has yet to play a game—all four on the December schedule were canceled due to the Thomas Fire—and Rams coach Lisa Holmes can’t wait to get started. “We have the strongest team we’ve had in probably seven or eight years,” said the enthusiastic coach. “We’ve been building; this is the year we’re finally going to take advantage of those returning players.”

Cate went just 6-11 overall and 5-8 in the Frontier League last season, but they lost a couple of one-goal games and finished strong at the end of the year, shutting out rival Thacher, 2-0.

The Rams return 16 players from last year’s squad, including six seniors: Emily Burns, Mari Espinoza, Julie Farner, Sophie Johnson, Isabela Montes De Oca and Janice Ng. They’ll also have a talented group of underclassmen with four freshmen who are expected to make an impact this season. Burns and Farner will help shore up a solid back line defensively. Junior Maddie Erickson will also play a key role in keeping the ball out of the net and on offense with her deft passing ability.

On offense, Montes de Oca and sophomore Neema Mugofwa figure to be a dynamic duo once again this year.

“They (Montes de Oca and Mugofwa) were just learning to play together last year. There’s a good rhythm between them; they’re going to score a lot of goals together,” explained Holmes.

Espinoza returns at the goalkeeper position and Johnson will also play at the fullback position, as well as at forward.

Like the rest of the league, Cate will have to cope with a loss of playing time because of the Thomas Fire with the season now being condensed into six weeks. “We were doing a lot of fitness … we were building on the experience that was carried over from last year,” said Holmes of the abrupt halt to the start of the season. The Rams hope to return to play on Jan. 9, where they are scheduled to travel to play Nordhoff in Ojai.

Holmes is confident the team can excel this year. “I think we can even win the league; we certainly want to advance into the (CIF) playoffs,” said Holmes. She sees Carpinteria, Fillmore and Thacher as the teams to beat in League. “We get really motivated for Carpinteria and for Thacher, those are the games that mean the most to us,” explained Holmes. But for the upstart Rams, all they can do is wait.

Senior Isabela Montes De Oca will team up with Neema Mugofwa to light up the scoreboard this season.

PREP NEWS Carpinteria High School

Boys soccer

December 20 - The Carpinteria High School boys soccer team traveled south to face the Spartans of Rio Mesa, and were welcomed with a flurry of goals by the home team in a 6-1 loss. “The lone Warrior goal came off the boot of Gabriel Barajas when he sent a missile from about 45 yards out that traveled in what seemed like 10 different directions, much like a knuckle ball, and found the bottom left hand corner of the goal in the 30th minute of the first half,” reported Carpinteria coach Leo Quintero.

The Spartans opened up the scoring in the sixth minute of the first half and gained momentum, totaling four goals in the first half and two in the second.

“Our young men have been tested, facing great adversity with some being evacuated as the Thomas fire raged into Carpinteria,” said Quintero. Because of the Thomas Fire, the Warriors had been absent from any team activities since Dec. 4. Carpinteria’s overall record stands at 1-1-2 with League play yet to begin.

Alone on Mount Whitney

CVN

UNPREDICTABLE WILDERNESS CHUCK GRAHAM When I drove up to climb Mount Whitney late last month I was anticipating at least a few cars in the parking lot of the Whitney Portal.

However, as I approached just before dark, it was eerily quiet and void of any cars or climbers, only the roar of a creek and swaying pine trees breaking the high Eastern Sierra silence. I went right into organizing gear, changing into my warm stuff, stuffed my climbing pack and tucked all food items in the nearest bear box. It was 5:30 p.m. I had six hours before I left.

I slept in everything I was wearing except my Scarpa boots, and by 11:30 p.m. I was on the Mount Whitney Trail, taking advantage of a near full moon and those daunting granite cliffs beaming in the middle of the night.

I reached the first patches of ice at around 9,000 feet and beyond Outpost Camp there was at least knee-deep snow—it appeared no one had been on the trail recently. It wasn’t long after that the trail vanished completely and I was

cutting my own route. Despite the bright moon and my headlamp, I briefly lost my way twice and at one point I frustratingly walked in an ugly circle.

Eventually I found myself at Trail Camp at 12,000 feet, where there is no denying those silhouetted granite spires jutting skyward. The moon had sunk behind Mount Muir, Keeler Needle and Mount Whitney as brilliant shooting stars streaked above those toothy crags. There were a couple of shooting stars that displayed long-lasting tails as they streaked and dispersed against a dark sky.

I still held out hope that maybe there would be a tent or two at Trail Camp, but the mountain wasn’t having it. I was the only climber in the Mount Whitney Zone. That surprised me despite how cold it was and the snow depth reaching waist-deep in some sections above Outpost Camp.

I continued on towards those monotonous switchbacks ascending toward the Trail Crest and the spine of the Sierra Nevada Range. First light revealed a splendid palette of purples and pinks sweeping across the Inyo Mountains to the east and the desolate high desert landscape of the Alabama Hills and the stark Owens Valley below.

There’s nothing quite like alpine glow in the Eastern Sierra. With my ice axe I had posted to nearly 13,000 feet with stellar views of the Mount Whitney Zone and the dramatic high desertscape to the east.

Bright orange hues crept across those epic peaks with Mount Muir, Mount Whitney and Mount Russell, all California 14ers, towering above Trail Camp and Iceberg Lake, but the conditions had become unsafe. I was now climbing in chest-deep snow, and things were going slowly. It

Towering over the icy landscape are, from left, Mount Muir, Mount Whitney and Mount Russell, three of California’s 15 peaks over 14,000 feet. had taken me almost nine hours from my truck to the Trail Crest, far too long to reach the high peaks. It was only 8:30 in the morning, but the snow conditions were only getting more difficult—and I had to catch the boat the next morning. It was no time to make a mistake, so I turned around and descended the mountain. After all, the mountains aren’t going anywhere.

I slowly picked my way down the steep, broad couloir below the Trail Crest where conditions became treacherous.

Packed ice was concealed by thin snowdrifts. One slip may have meant a hard fall to the bottom. Luckily I avoided any mishaps and quickly moved through Trail Camp where more chest-deep snow awaited. That continued to just before Outpost Camp when the trail appeared once more.

I did take a nice spill on a narrow sheet of ice just below Lone Pine Lake. My crampons and ice axe were tucked away as I found myself soundly slammed on the ice, my feet literally flying out from under me. Unfortunately my miscue didn’t go unnoticed. A cheeky little chipmunk perched on a splintered pine tree alerted everything with a pulse within the immediate region.

It was the only wildlife I saw in the Mount Whitney Zone that day, a high Eastern-Sierra heckler keeping watch on the Lower 48’s tallest peak.

Improv classes come to the Alcazar

The crucial life skill of reacting to changing circumstances is the focus of comedy improvisation—the theater genre in which actors create a show as they go along, with no script other than the prompts and cues they receive from one another. The Alcazar Theatre, 4916 Carpinteria Ave., is offering an eight-week Beginner’s Improv Workshop starting Saturday, Jan. 6, from 10 a.m. to noon. The workshop is open to adults, and the cost is $100. Tom Mueller, a 30-year veteran of improvisation and the co-founder of the Ventura Improv Company, will lead the workshops. For more information and to register, email tom_mueller@sbcglobal.net/.

La Conchita slide survivor tells her story

Diane Metivier-Hart shares her experience of being buried alive in the 2005 La Conchita landslide in her new book, “A Silent Stillness—Buried Alive.” When the bluff behind her home slid on Monday, Jan. 10, 2005, it took just eight seconds for the 56-year-old nurse to be buried alive. With collapsed lungs and multiple broken bones, Metivier-Hart survived in a two-by-two-foot airspace buried 30 feet under rocks, mud and the tangled debris of her displaced home.

While entombed, she reflected on her life—what led her to this place in time and whether she had made a positive impact on others. Motivated by her spiritual resolve and the desire to see her grandchildren grow up and to see her family again, Metivier-Hart found the strength to stay alive while rescuers desperately search for her. “A Silent Stillness—Buried Alive” is available at Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Festival of Trees awards $20K to local groups PHOTOS BY CARLOS BRENS

The Thomas Fire burned the Festival of Tree’s chances of a record-breaking money-making year. Nonetheless, the mighty fundraiser put $20,000 into the hands of local organizations in need—even with several days of closures and low raffle ticket sales once the fire enveloped Carpinteria in a cloud of hazardous smoke.

Carpinteria Lions Club, which sponsors the event, held it at the Carpinteria Arts Center for the first time this year. The new venue received rave reviews for offering a more intimate experience with its series of small rooms hosting clusters of trees.

After a week delay due to fire, the fundraiser closed last weekend and the drawing was held on Dec. 17—putting 20 beautifully decorated trees and loads of gifts into the hands of raffle winners.

This year’s most valuable tree was the Lions Club’s own entry, which included prizes worth over $6,000, and the biggest winners were the nonprofit beneficiaries. The Carpinteria Arts Center received $15,000, Friends of the Library $2,000, Rancho Allegre Boy Scout Ranch $2,000 and Movies in the Park, $1,000.

Friends of the Library receives its $2,000 cut of the fundraiser.

Carpinteria Movies in the Park receives $1,000 from the Festival of Trees.

The Boy Scout camp that burned in the Whittier Fire receives $2,000 toward its rebuild.
