Cool weather has prompted Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area fire managers to lift all restrictions on campfires, smoking, and other activities, effective Wednesday.  Even with the removal of restrictions on scenic area lands, fire managers remind everyone to practice safe campfire principles and be cautious with any potential ignition source, as vegetation remains dry.  Scenic Area officials advise when smoking, always dispose of cigarette debris in some type of ashtray, avoid driving and parking in tall grass or on roads with heavy fine fuel accumulations, don’t drag chains while towing, and make sure your campfire is completely out and cold to the touch before leaving.  They also note fire restrictions may still be in effect on neighboring State and private lands, so check the regulations of those agencies when recreating.
