[Ken Thompson]

Put those alcohol stoves away,

To reduce the risk of accidental human-caused fires in the parks, the parks will be entering Stage 2 Fire Restrictions effective Wednesday, August 15th, at 12:00 PM.

This means:
• Wood and charcoal fires (including wood-burning stoves) are prohibited in South Fork, Potwisha, and Buckeye Flat Campgrounds. Campfires are permitted in all other campgrounds.
• In designated wilderness, wood and charcoal fires (including wood-burning stoves) are prohibited below 6,000 feet. Year-round elevation/site-specific wilderness fire restrictions also apply.
• Wood and charcoal fires (including wood-burning stoves) are prohibited in Hospital Rock and Ash Mountain picnic areas. Wood and charcoal fires are allowed in all other designated picnic areas.
• Smoking is prohibited below 6,000 feet, except within an enclosed vehicle, a campground or picnic area where wood and charcoal fires are allowed, or a designated smoking area.
• Gas, propane, alcohol (with and without a shutoff valve), and tablet/cube stoves are permitted in all developed front-country campgrounds, established picnic areas, and wilderness areas.
Thank you for helping to keep the parks safe this fire season!
