2024 San Juan National Forest Prescribed Fire Program
Publication Type: News 11/03/2023

**POSTPONED**

Due to unfavorable weather conditions, the USDA-San Juan National Forest will postpone todays planned prescription burn on the Southern HD Unit, East 4 Block. Today's planned 500-acre prescription burn was set to start at 10am. Winds are expected to pick up mid-day, producing gusts up to 30+mph. Wind is a driving factor for prescription burns and must fall within the prescription guidelines in order to start ignition. USDA-San Juan National Forest will re-schedule the burn on the East 4 Block of the Southern HD Unit at a later date when weather conditions are more favorable.
