Controlled Burning Continues on Tuesday March 9th for Winburn Ridge in the Ashland Watershed
On Tuesday (3/9/21), the AFR Partners plan to do a controlled burn of debris piles to lessen fire danger in the Ashland Watershed along USFS 2060-500 spur and Winburn Ridge. No trails or roads will be closed however the 2060-500 road will have areas with heavy smoke impacts during the pile ignition. This area is remote from popular trails so we don’t expect any recreation impacts.Thank you for the continued patience as we continue to do the important work of removing these excess fuels from the Ashland watershed.
Smoke will be visible but should not impact any populated areas.
USFS 2060-500 could have some smoke
