Closures and Delayed Openings
Closures and delayed openings may be in effect for a variety of reasons, including muddy conditions, snowpack, and damage resulting from runoff and flooding. Roads and campgrounds may also be closed because conditions are unsafe as a result of the mountain pine beetle infestation. Some areas are closed for safety reasons while crews work to remove hazard trees. All closures are ordered to ensure that the public remains safe while visiting National Forest System lands. The Forest Service works to reopen these temporary closures as soon as possible.
