Know Before You Go! 

Before you head outdoors to explore, always check for...

Fire Restrictions
   Red Flag Warnings & Fire Weather Watches 

 

Fires ignited under these conditions, even accidentally, would exhibit EXTREME fire behavior. Limit or restrict all activities that may generate a spark and start a fire. 

Follow all fire restrictions that may be in effect and use caution when working or recreating outdoors.
