The Cleveland National Forest will be starting the closures associated
with the EXTREME fire danger levels this coming Monday 9\27\2004.
All access to National Forest land south of I-8 will be closed.
This closure will likely remain in effect until we receive sufficient
rainfall to reduce the fire danger level. The area south of I-8 is
being closed because of the extremely dry condition of the old
chaparral which makes up this entire area.
This EXTREME fire danger will impact all users of the area south of
I-8 including OHV users, hunters, hikers, mountain bikers (Lake Moreno -Corral Canyon ORV) , wilderness
users etc.
During EXTREME all Forest Service gates north of I-8 will also be
closed on Forest Service roads. No motorized vehicles will be
permitted on these roads. There will be no impacts on non motorized
users north of I-8. So all users can hike, hunt, ride bikes or horses
North of I-8. All county, state and federal roads will remain open.
Within the area impacted by the Cedar Burn (Noble Canyon), all mountain bikes and
equestrians must stay on designated trails regardless of the Fire
Danger Level.
The current fire danger level is posted on the USFS website
http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/cleveland/ or a recorded message can be heard
at 619 593-2183.
