Wednesday, March 27th: Controlled burn in Hald Strawberry Park and Above Granite Reservoir

Two controlled burns will be managed today by the Ashland Forest Resiliency. One controlled burn to consume piles is located in Hald Strawberry Park. Streets and the neighborhood around Hald Strawberry Park may have some smoke. Please keep your doors and windows closed.

A second burn is near Glenview Drive, across from the Fairy Ponds above Granite Reservoir. Smoke is expected to move away from town, however, some smoke may be in the area close to the burns. Today is a Jackson County burn day and you may see burns at other locations. You can now check the new Ashland Forest Resiliency watershed camera and webpage.

Thank you for your patience as we complete controlled burns to increase fire safety in and around our community.

The Ashland Forest Resiliency Stewardship Project (AFR) is a collaborative forest restoration project that reduces the risk of severe wildfire across public and private land in and around the Ashland Watershed by thinning overcrowded forests and conducting controlled burns.
