It’s been a heck of a year, running from the
protest marches that surrounded the new

In between government meetings, sports,
and portraits was an assignment covering
a bee extraction. “I’ve photographed these
before but it was the first time I had to wear
a beekeeper’s suit,” he recalled. “The bee guy

THOMAS FIRE
SIR THOMAS THE HELLACIOUS: The Thomas Fire has burned for more
than three weeks, but it got really scary just before dawn on Saturday,
December 16, as it raged down the hillsides toward Montecito, pushed
by 65-mile-per-hour winds. This is what San Ysidro Canyon looked like at
5:30 that morning (1). After the fire, the next nightmare will be the mud
and ash running off the denuded hillsides, such as this one by Casitas
Pass (2). Fire departments from 17 states sent personnel to fight the
Thomas Fire. Here, crews from Arroyo Grande, Santa Lucia, Vandenberg,
and Bend, Oregon, cut a line in Toro Canyon; it’s backbreaking work on
steep slippery slopes in close quarters (3). Sometimes the frightening
6
and eerie can also be flat-out beautiful, as Thornton Fire Chief Everett
Watkins — captured resting by East Mountain Drive — demonstrates 7
(4). Even though air quality dipped to positively hazardous depths during
the fire, some athletes — intrepid or foolhardy — continued to train,
such as this cyclist on Via Real in Carpinteria (5). Firefighting airplanes
may draw media attention, but it’s the helicopters who do the lion’s share
of aerial bombardment, dropping water and retardant from buckets such
as these (6). Highway 192 has many different names, but throughout the
Thomas Fire, it was the southern boundary over which the flames did not
pass. But as this photo shows, it got damn close (7). Sometimes you have
to improvise, like this firefighter, who mounted this pedestal to douse
a burning palm tree by San Ysidro Ranch to deal with the lack of water
pressure (8).

WHITTIER FIRE
REMEMBER THE WHITTIER: Though overwhelmed in scope and scare
tactics by the Thomas Fire, the Whittier Fire rattled our cages for quite
a while in July as it burned more than 18,000 acres from Cachuma
Lake to the foothills above Goleta and Gaviota. With
the Hoffman family (2) and thousands of others

2017
T H E Y E A R I N
watching, the blaze damaged much of the
landscape along Highway 154 (1, 4, 5),
destroyed the Boy Scout camp at Rancho
PHOTOS Alegre (3), and forced more than 2,700
to evacuate, including Jackson Taylor
(6), who packed his car in the Winchester
Canyon area.

STORMS
RAIN, RAIN, COME OUR WAY: Five years of drought were
alleviated briefly by winter rains across Santa Barbara. That led
to beauty, such as the rainbow across East Beach (1), as well as
destruction, toppling Italian stone pines into cars on Anapamu
Street (2). Zyrus Perez surfed the rain swell on Valerio Street
(3), and rocks were added to protect Goleta Beach from erosion
(4). Isla Vista experienced falling cliffs on the 6600 block of Del
Playa (5), and then lightning made quite the surprise showing
in September (6).

UP AND DOWN AND OUT: Marijuana has always been big business, but with commercial legalization just around the corner, it’s bound to
grow even more (2-3). Carpinteria’s greenhouses, formerly used for flowers, are now sprouting bud, but so too are hoop houses in Santa Ynez
Valley (1). Elected officials want to maximize revenues while minimizing impact; the industry warns against killing geese laying golden eggs.
It’s been an intense year for Santa Barbara City Attorney Ariel Calonne (pictured), who brought the hammer down on embattled landlord
Dario Pini, not to mention RV and Sprinter owners alike (4). Adelanto bills itself as the “City of Unlimited Possibilities,” but for hundreds of
undocumented Santa Barbara County residents, this Homeland Security facility there is where they wind up going after serving terms in
County Jail (5). An epidemic of empty storefronts on State Street became a hot campaign issue as community leaders grapple with Amazon
.com (6). A terrifying crash left three people injured when a helicopter crash-landed at La Cumbre Country Club, burning the aircraft and two

celebrated his 50th birthday by running 50 miles in less than nine hours to
raise $50,000 for both Westmont Athletics and the Santa Barbara Track Club (1).
The Dos Pueblos High School (DPHS) Chargers took on the San Marcos High Royals in a
crosstown basketball rivalry (2). Polo players converged on the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club
in Summerland in August (3). San Marcos High’s Paige Hauschild earned All-CIF and league MVP honors
and was the youngest player named to the American roster for July’s FINA World Championships in
Budapest, Hungary (4). California’s Hoop Shoot champions from Foothill School, Gabe Cordero, left, and
Carly Letendre, practiced before the championship in Las Vegas (5). Santa Barbara High School (SBHS)
women’s basketball player Cassandra Gordon drove to the hoop in a game against crosstown rival DPHS
(7), and later SBHS head coach Andrew Butcher pleaded with the ref for a timely time-out (6). SBHS’s
Celso Lagunas (#14) lunged for the ball in a soccer match hosted by San Marcos High School (SMHS) (8).
The Westmont College basketball team played a tough defensive game against Vanguard in February
but lost the match (9). SMHS softballers beat out Beckman in late May to move on to the CIF Division 4
