The Coalition for the Upper South Platte’s fuels management crews are scheduled to begin pile burning in the next few weeks.
Crews will begin burning piles located north of Divide within the Ute Lakes Fishing and Recreation Club, and east of Woodland Park at the Glen Aspen Boy Scout Camp, off of Loy Creek Road. Burning will occur as weather and conditions allow throughout the next few months.
Smoke may be visible on Highway 24, County Road 5, Highway 67, Rampart Range Road and Loy Creek Road. Smoke-sensitive residents should consider staying indoors and keeping doors, windows and outside vents closed.
Fuels management staff will post road signs around the areas affected by the pile burns and send Nixel notifications. For more information please contact the Coalition for the Upper South Platte at cusp@uppersouthplatte.org or 719.748.0033
