Forest Re-Opens
July 3rd, 2008 categories: Community, Mountain Wildlife
In a previous post I mentioned that we would do our best to keep you updated on the latest forest conditions in the area. Though it was predicted that our monsoon season would start late this year, we had an increase in precipitation over the course of June. It’s not enough to take us out of Stage II fire restrictions (see below), but the forest re-opened Wednesday, July 2 and we are very grateful. The air is fresh and cool, the grass is finally turning green, and the hummingbirds are out in full force.
(July 11) FIRE RESTRICTION UPDATE:
The use of an open campfire and charcoal grill is no longer restricted in the Lincoln County National Forest. As always, fireworks are prohibited on all federal lands.
