What do "Fire Restrictions" mean for your next visit to the Tillamook State Forest?
At 1:00 AM on Tuesday, June 22, 2021, the Northwest Oregon Forest Protective Association (NWOFPA), which includes the Tillamook State Forest, enters into the Regulated Use portion of fire season.
When you pass an orange or yellow sign like the ones pictured at the right it means that Regulated Use is in effect.
For folks headed out to rural areas or to the Tillamook State Forest, there are several things to keep in mind as you prepare for your trip and while you are out in the woods during regulated use.
Planning ahead and practicing fire safety will not only help keep Oregon's forests green, it may just save you a citation.
Check out the "Fire Season" tab on this blog for information related to campfires, OHV trails and other regulated use requirements and restrictions related to public use of Oregon's State Forests.
