A July Fourth Safety Message from Stanislaus National Forest
Sonora, CA...With the Fourth of July upon us, Stanislaus National Forest visitors can enjoy a variety of summer recreation activities, including camping, backpacking, and picnicking. Extreme temperatures are likely, so we encourage you to be prepared for summer heat. These unseasonably hot temperatures increase the risk of fire as the ground begins to dry. Extreme temperatures can also lead to thunderstorms and lightning, which can ignite trees on the forest.
We urge safety and preparedness when traveling in wildland areas. Remember, Know Before You Go. Be sure you know how to react if you find yourself on the forest near a fire. Check with forest ranger staff or firefighters in your area to learn more. Be aware that smoke may be present around the forest this weekend and that everyone in your group is prepared for that.
Fire Restrictions start June 30th in the High and Moderate Hazard areas, Forest Order STF-16-2018-002 and STF-16-2018-003 prohibits campfires, cook stoves and smoking outside developed campgrounds, except in developed recreation sites. To see the guidelines and review the Forest Order, visit:
https://origin-fs.fs.usda.gov/alerts/stanislaus/alerts-notices/?aid=47352 for High Hazard and
https://origin-fs.fs.usda.gov/alerts/stanislaus/alerts-notices/?aid=47356 for Moderate Hazard.
Camping:
• Campfire restrictions are in place. Check at visitor centers for more information.
• If campfires are allowed, obtain a campfire permit
• Clear away grass, leaves and other debris within 5 feet of campfire or barbecue grill
• Have a responsible person in attendance at all times
• Ensure all campfires are completely extinguished before leaving
• When barbecuing, never leave the grill unattended
• Children near open flame should always be supervised by a responsible adult
Hazard Tree Awareness:
• The Stanislaus National Forest has experienced extensive tree mortality https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/stanislaus/home/?cid=FSEPRD497167
• While a great deal of work has been accomplished, dead and dying trees remain
• Look Up, Look Down, Look Around before parking or setting up camp
• Drive cautiously. Watch for road hazards including trees that have fallen
Traveling:
• Safe towing: dragging chains can throw sparks that easily ignite wildfires
• Be wheel safe: Check tire pressure before leaving home
•
