Sims Mesa prescribed burn on BLM-managed lands south of Montrose along Government Springs Road has been cancelled for May 5, due to high winds and low relative humidity in the weather forecast for the next five days. Fire managers will continue to look for a safe day to burn if conditions allow until May 15th when a wildlife closure goes into effect.
