Cleveland National Forest to Partially Re-Open on October 9th
The Cleveland National Forest will partially re-open on Friday, October 9th, with some closures still in effect. Many campgrounds will remain closed due to end of season operations or because they are within closed areas, but many developed campgrounds will be available to campers. Dispersed camping will be prohibited until the end of the year and Emergency Fire Restrictions have been extended through October 22, 2020.
The Emergency Fire Restrictions state that building, maintaining, attending or using a fire, campfire, or stove fire or smoking on National Forest System lands is prohibited, but propane and gas stove use are permitted in developed recreation sites in National Forests in California.
Outdoor recreation can be beneficial for your health but must be practiced safely. We recommend exercising close to your home and complying with local and state guidance for not traveling for your recreation needs. If an area is crowded, please search for a less occupied location. Stay safe. For more on avoiding COVID-19, visit www.coronavirus.gov.
Visiting National Forests
Please avoid visiting national forests if you are sick and/or experiencing COVID-19 symptoms. Follow CDC guidance on personal hygiene and social distancing before and during your visit to the forest.
If an area is crowded, move to a less occupied location. Also consider avoiding the forest during high-use periods.

The Three Sisters & Cedar Creek Falls Area forest closures will be in effect from August 4 through October 31, 2020 and will address public, employee, and cooperator health and safety concerns related to dispersed recreation and fire risk in the areas.
