Fire Restriction Order Lifted
The Fire Restriction placed on June 3, 2026 (see below) will be terminated
effective at sunrise on September 15, 2026.
Although the restriction has been lifted, the vegetation in the Oaks area is dry
and the risk of wildfire still exists. We ask all recreationalists to make sure
their fires and charcoals are completely extinguished with copious amounts
of water before leaving them. Any wildfires that start from a campfire or
charcoal cooking is the liability of the recreationalist.
Effective Date: 7:09 a.m., 15th day of September, 2026
