Safety Advisories for Heaton Flats / Iron Mountain Trail

All roads recently closed due to the Fork Fire have reopened at this time. However, it is not recommended for anyone to hike the Heaton Flats Trail / Iron Mountain Trail or use the area in and downhill from the Fork Fire burned area for recreational use of any kind. Hazards could include potential rolling rocks and vegetation; landslides, mudslides, and debris flows; hidden hot spots burning underground that you could step into unknowingly, and fire burning slowly inside trees. Major injuries or death are possible. Please consider exploring another area of the Angeles National Forest.
