Please remember that forest roads within the August Complex and Ranch Fire areas are subject to landslides, rockfall, erosion, debris flows and flooding. A large number of trees fallen and may continue to fall in windy or wet weather. Make sure you have alternative ways out in case roads become impassable. Be safe out there!
Order No. 08-21-02 - Select campgrounds, trails and trailheads remain closed because of safety hazards created by last year's August Complex wildfires.
