Fire! – On June 5, fire fighters from Kern, Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura counties, LA city, the U.S. Forest Service, and Cal Fire will conduct a nighttime "Brite Lake Helicopter Roundup" to practice loading water at Brite Lake and dropping it on a real fire on Cummings Mountain. "This is a huge thing," Kern Fire Pilot Scott Beck said at the Tehachapi-Cummings County Water District board meeting May 21. "It's an honor to be asked to participate. No one else in the world does this." Campers at Brite Lake will have a good view of the air traffic.
