Tomorrow, on December 7, Ashland Forest Resiliency Project (AFR) is managing a high elevation controlled burn near Panther Peak. Smoke is not expected to impact the community. Some smoke could drift over the No Candies Trail.
Click here for a video about proactive fire planning to learn how controlled burning is helping make our forests healthier and our community safer in the face of increasingly hot and dry summers.
What To Do When There’s Smoke In the Air Please close windows in the evening, and those sensitive to smoke should stay inside and use a HEPA quality air purifier if air quality declines. Our Smokewise Ashland site has all the resources you need to stay healthy when smoke is in the air.
