Fire must be in an enclosure that is a minimum of 16 inches high, no wider than three feet across, and made of cement block, stones, or #10-gauge steel.

Burned material must be kept lower than the sidewalls of the enclosure.

One of the following must always be in the immediate vicinity of the enclosure and present during burning.

  • A charged garden hose; or
  • two, five-gallon buckets of water; or

  • Fires must be 25 feet from any standing timber or combustibles and there must be no tree branches within 15 feet above the enclosure.

Road Closed Signs in the park

by

If you are traveling through the park and come to a sign in the road that reads “Road Closed Do Not Enter” or “Temporary Road Closure Tree Felling Do Not Enter” with cones blocking the road, that means that the road is closed beyond that point. This does not only apply to vehicles, it also applies to humans. If the Caretakers are felling a tree, they need to be able to focus on that task and not be distracted by Curious George or Looky Lou. Entering that work zone puts you and others at risk of being injured. Please do not ignore these signs. The caretakers only close the road if it is necessary.
