Fire restrictions increase in area parks
Due to the high risk of fire
in our area, as well as recently
issued emergency orders from
several fire districts, Lane
County Parks will be enforcing
these restrictions at several
parks:
• No open flames are allowed
in Lane County parks, includ-
ing no campfires, warming
fires, cooking fires or ceremo-
nial fires.
• Gas-powered barbeques
and cooking stoves using liq-
uid or bottled fuels are allowed,
but are restricted to use for
cooking purposes only.
• Open flames are prohibit-
ed at day use areas in Lane
County parks.
• Tobacco use and vaping
are already prohibited in Lane
County parks.
• Any other spark-emitting
operation not specifically
mentioned is prohibited.
Not included in these
restrictions are coastal Lane
County parks located west of
milepost 18 on Highway 126,
including Archie Knowles
Campground and Harbor
Vista Campground.
Lane County will continue
to monitor weather conditions,
especially humidity and wind,
to determine if further restric-
tions become necessary,
including potential park and
trail closures.
While these restrictions may
cause some inconvenience to
park visitors, Lane County
appreciates the understanding
of the community as we work
together to protect our highly
valued public parks and the
safety of park users.
