"FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., May 28, 2025 — The Coconino National Forest will implement Stage 1 fire and smoking restrictions 8 a.m., Friday, May 30, to help prevent human-caused fires and to limit the potential for catastrophic wildfires during periods of dangerous fire weather conditions.

Under Stage 1 restrictions, fires, campfires, charcoal, coal, wood stoves and smudge pots are prohibited, except within a developed recreation site. Smoking is also prohibited, except within an enclosed vehicle, building or an official developed recreation site.

Using a device that is solely fueled by pressurized liquid petroleum, propane or LPG fuels that can be turned on and off is allowed in areas that are barren or cleared of all overhead and surrounding flammable materials within 3 feet of the device. "

 

In the last couple of days, I have seen on WatchDuty.org small fires near Mormon Lake, Dogtown Lake, Marshall Lake, Wing Mtn, Tusayan, North Kaibab.

Should have started a week ago. I cant tell you how many out of control campfires I saw last weekend.

I was up in Bellemont/Parks and it was way too dry and windy on Saturday. I wouldnt light a fire but some folks directly below me and upwind did. I was nervous
