Colville National Forest
Campfire and fire-use rules for this area, with each localized order the land manager has published.
Campfires allowed.
AllowedThe page states that as of September 11, 2026, there are no public use restrictions in place on the Colville National Forest. A navigation alert reads 'Colville National Forest Terminates Fire Public Use Restrictions,' and the Sinlahekin Fire Closure is listed as terminated on the Tonasket Ranger District. Stage 1 and Stage 2 descriptions appear on the page without being tied to a current order. Only the ALWAYS PROHIBITED fireworks, explosives, and combustion-engine rules apply, and those are not camping fire-use rules.
