Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest

Campfire and fire-use rules for this area, with each localized order the land manager has published.

Campfires allowed.

Allowed

The page lists a headline alert 'Termination of Stage 1 Public Use Restrictions and Campfire Ban' and shows no active forest-wide Stage 1 or Stage 2 restriction. Standing year-round rules cover fireworks, explosives, spark arresters, and IFPL chainsaw use, not campfires. Localized fire-area closures (Three Queens, Little Giant, Ptarmigan) are listed without describing any campfire rule, so they are not recorded as localized fire-use rules.
