Seasonal campfire restrictions in San Bernardino and surrounding counties has been lifted – allowing campfires and target shooting on public lands. Although restrictions are lifted, News Director Jef Harmatz reminds us of the guidelines that are still in place:
- Always allow at least 5 feet cleared around your campfire
- Keep a shovel and plenty of water on hand to put your campfire dead out before leaving it.
- When traveling on public lands, park vehicles away from areas where hot exhaust could cause grass or other combustibles to ignite – and when out target shooting never use steel targets or steel jacketed ammunition as they are more likely to cause a fire.
