Forsythe II Prescribed Burn
Publication Type: Announcement - 04/24/2024 - 14:30
Ignitions are complete for today, Wednesday, April 24, after successfully treating 30 acres at the Forsythe II prescribed burn. Firefighters will remain in the area to secure and monitor the perimeter of this burn unit. Due to unforecasted overnight rain last night, burning conditions resulted in less smoke than was expected for today. Smoke may remain visible in the Gross Reservoir area.
Fire crews are monitoring conditions for possible ignitions again tomorrow, Thursday, April 25. If drying trends continue, the potential for notable smoke will remain.
Additional email notifications will be sent out periodically during ignition periods. To receive updates, make sure to join our email list and select "Forest Health & Fire: North of Hwy 72 (Coal Creek Canyon) to Hwy 119 Boulder Canyon (Nederland and Magnolia areas)". Additional information, including maps and project details for the Forsythe II prescribed burn plan, can be found here on InciWeb.
