My son and I were photographing helicopters picking up water at the Encino Reservoir for the Palisades Fire, when we noticed a new fire at the Victory Trail area - Kenneth Fire. With traffic, it took us almost an hour to get there. We decided to hike a trail and climb a medium size hill where the fire fighters were working. The helicopters were going to a water tank bellow the hill so we were able to get eye level photographs.
