A couple of weeks ago, before we launched our stacks feature to the public, we were all making stacks like crazy in hopes of cashing in on the free lunch John Holland offered us if one of our stacks made it into the Stacks Gallery.

One of the stacks I made focused on Big Sur, the famously beautiful coastal town close to where I grew up. Unfortunately, in the last week the wildfires here in California have burned about 100,000 acres of land in and around the Big Sur wilderness and are still burning.

Some of the pages in my stack have turned out to be good resources for updates on the fire – the Nepenthe site has a webcam that has captured flames and smoke in the mountains and the Henry Miller Library site was updated to announce that firefighters saved the library on Wednesday. Flip through the stack below to see some gorgeous pictures and read about Big Sur’s history.
