This work will only take place on park property, including: 

      • Clearing of hazardous trees and overgrown brush, trees with health concerns, ignition susceptible shrubs, and deadfall
      • Trimming vegetation near power lines, roadways, and recreational trails
      • Fuel break will be established on the North Side of Campground Loop C and Loop B

Visitors may observe heavy equipment operating within the park. There will be increased noise levels during this work, and temporary closures of certain areas may be necessary for safety. We appreciate your patience and understanding as these essential projects are completed.
