Firewood Permits

Firewood permits remain free in Northern Region Forests through December 31, 2022, but you must obtain a free permit and abide by it when cutting. Contact your local Ranger Station to obtain a required permit.

Christmas Tree Permits

Cutting the family Christmas tree is timeless tradition. You can now get your tree permits online between mid-October to the end of December at Recreation.gov.

Special Use Permits

Special events or commercial use of public lands require a permit. This includes commercial activities such as filming or guiding, and non-commercial uses such as organized events or gatherings, and recreation residences.

Non-Wood Forest Products

Special forest products are non-timber goods that can be found in the forest such as mushrooms, seeds, evergreen boughs and huckleberries.
