Klickitat County Outdoor Burn Ban Begins Monday

An outdoor burn ban in unincorporated areas of Klickitat County will go into effect on Monday.  County Commissioners this week approved a resolution establishing the ban.  Commissioner Jim Sizemore says local fire districts are bracing for a difficult fire season, noting there have already been some lightning-caused fires.  Attended camp fires will be allowed in the Mt. Adams Guler County Park in Trout Lake within the designated eight-foot cleared area with steel fire rings.
