Fire Danger to Moderate / Blue for Public Use Restrictions on July 4, 2024

 The Northwest Oregon Forest Protective Association (ODF's Astoria, Forest Grove, and Tillamook Districts) will increase to "Moderate Fire Danger" on Thursday, July 4, 2024 at 12:01 AM.  This area includes the Clatsop and Tillamook State Forests.

With the change to "moderate" fire danger and its associated public use restrictions, OHV trail riding will again be allowed throughout the day. However, campfires will remain limited to developed facilities (ODF managed campgrounds and day-use areas with metal fire rings).
