The Cliff Mountain Fire started by lightning on July 25 in Hells Canyon National Recreation Area. The fire is 1,108 acres with 20 percent containment. Although there has been no fire activity or smoke in the past several days, firefighters are continuing to actively assess current and future potential movement on the Cliff Mountain Fire and will take aggressive action if needed.

Under these restrictions, campfires are allowed only in recreation sites within metal fire pits. Fires of any kind are not allowed in any dispersed camping areas.
