    State increases fire danger for recreationists

    By The Astorian,

    12 days ago

    The Oregon Department of Foresty will increase fire danger for recreationists in the region to "high" on Wednesday because of extremely high temperatures.

    Under the change, campfires will only be allowed in designated metal firepits at Henry Rierson Spruce Run campground, Gnat Creek campground, Northrup Creek Horse Camp and Beaver Eddy sites in Clatsop County. All off-highway vehicle trails in the Nicolai Mountain OHV Riding Area will close at 1 p.m. daily, and all campfires and barbecues are prohibited in the dispersed campsites in the Nicolai Mountain OHV Riding Area and Lost Lake.
