Visitors to the forest should be aware that fire crews will be conducting prescribed burning to create defensible space between communities and the U.S. Forest Service lands over the 2018-2019 winter season. Burning will occur intermittedly throughout the winter and is planned on a day-to-day basis when weather conditions, among other factors, are safe for burning.
To stay up to date, check the forest's Twitter account at @SanBernardinoNF (account creation not required). Large projects are also listed on InciWeb (smaller pile burning projects at any of the 25 Forest Service fire stations will not be listed).
