South Park Ranger District To Conduct Prescribed Burns

As part of ongoing hazardous fuels reduction projects, the South Park Ranger District will conduct prescribed burns in the Wilson, Obrien and Beaver areas in Park County through December when conditions permit.   

The Wilson project area is near the entrance to Eleven Mile Canyon.   

The Beaver area is nine miles southwest of Lake George. 

The Obrien project is about three miles southwest of Lake George.   

For both firefighter and public safety, forest visitors can expect occasional closures during burning operations.
