Camp Josepho was destroyed by the Palisades Fire. Details here from WLACC Scouting America:

We regret to inform you that Camp Josepho, our 84-year-old Scouting Camp located in the Santa Monica Mountains, has been destroyed in the Pacific Palisades Fire.

Off topic, Camp Josepho was where my son had his first Scout overnight outing, as a Webelos joining our local scout troop. 🙏

(Lesson there: DO NOT let the kids eat the partially frozen hamburger that they were unable to thaw out properly... there was a lot of vomiting.)

@ai6yr awful but glad it did not also include a loss of life. Hopefully a new scout camp can be built there.
