Fire restrictionsCalifornia
Klamath National Forest and Butte Valley National Grassland
Campfire and fire-use rules for this area, with each localized order the land manager has published.
Campfires allowed.
AllowedA later press release dated September 23, 2026 states the Klamath National Forest rescinds fire restrictions effective midnight Sept. 24, superseding the earlier September 8 release that only eased restrictions in wilderness areas. This supports a forest-wide status of none. The page's alert list still names a Trinity Alps Wilderness Area Restrictions item with no supplied text, and the fire danger zone lines are undated, so those remain for review. No localized fire-use rules are supported by the supplied text.
