Forest Service Temporarily Closes All National Forests in California
Contact(s): Jonathan Groveman, (707) 562-8995
VALLEJO, Calif., September 9, 2020—Due to unprecedented and historic fire conditions throughout the state, the USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region is announcing a temporary closure of an additional ten National Forests, meaning all eighteen National Forests in California are now closed. The closure of the additional ten forests will be effective at 5:00 pm today. These additional forests include the Eldorado National Forest, Klamath National Forest, Lassen National Forest, Mendocino National Forest, Modoc National Forest, Six Rivers National Forest, Plumas National Forest, Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Tahoe National Forest, and Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit. This decision will be re-evaluated daily as conditions change.
We had closed eight National Forests on Monday evening, Sept. 7, 2020. Explosive growth of fires throughout California during the day and late evening of Sept. 8th led to this updated decision.
“The number of large fires and extreme fire behavior we are seeing across the State is historic," said Regional Forester Randy Moore. "These temporary closures are necessary to protect the public and our firefighters, and we will keep them in place until conditions improve and we are confident that National Forest visitors can recreate safely. I ask all Californians and visitors to take these closures and evacuations seriously for their own safety and to allow our firefighters to focus on the mission of safely suppressing these fires."
The Forest Service thanks our partners and the public for their cooperation and understanding of this monumental fire threat. It is critical that all Californians and national forest visitors follow these important closures and restrictions for their own safety and the safety of our firefighters. Citizens with specific questions within their area may call their local forests for more information.
The Forest Service manages 18 National Forests in the Pacific Southwest Region, which encompasses over 20 million acres across California, and assists forest landowners in California, Hawaii and the U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands. National forests supply 50 percent of the water in California and form the watershed of most major aqueducts and more than 2,400 reservoirs throughout the state.

매일 체크해야겠습니다. 앤셀아담스 윌더니스 산행이 열흘 앞으로 다가왔는데, 상황이 그 전에 종료되고 공기도 맑아지기를 희망해봅니다.

감사합니다. 개인적으로는 10일안에 좀 안될 것 같은 생각이 듭니다. 그리고 순간 좋아진다고 하더라도, 현재상황에서는 전반적으로 Safety concern 이 됩니다. Creek Fire 에 고립되었던 분들 처럼... 이게 보면 대개 순간적으로 발생이 될 수도 있는 상황인지라...

여기 정보가 잘못됐는지 South Lake Tahoe는 지금도 green(좋음) 상태네요. 여차하면 이쪽으로 바꾸시지요?

여차하면 이쪽으로 바꾸시지요? --> 네, 상황을 한 번 보시죠. Mt. Talac 이나 Angola Peak 도 좋은 옵션일 것 같습니다.

Important Update for Inyo National Forest - Wilderness Permits
