Due to the Kruger Rock Fire burning near Estes Park, the Roosevelt National Forest has closed lands south and east of Estes Park. The closure order and map are available on our website at https://t.co/xdM9x4Jtyb along with a link to the Larimer County Sheriff’s fire information.
Additional areas on the Canyon Lakes Ranger District have reopened following fire and flood recovery work, including Kelly Flats, Long Draw and Grandview campgrounds. https://t.co/wnZ16gIwKe
Today marks 1 year since the #CameronPeakFire started in Colorado. It eventually became the largest wildfire in our state's history. We talked to @RockyNPS and @PoudreV about recovery efforts. https://t.co/yzRITwP7B4

During #NationalPollinatorWeek, we thought we'd highlight the beautiful wildflowers found in the Forests and Grassland. They are a sign of renewal and recovery in many fire burn scars. Be sure to only take pictures and allow the pollinators to do their job! #CameronPeakRecovery
Firefighters finished ignitions for today on the Magic Feather Prescribed Burn, successfully burning 11 acres even with a pause while winds in the area temporarily increased. Firefighters will remain on the burn tonight. Burning is expected tomorrow if conditions allow.
Here is an image from a trail restoration event on 5/14 & 5/15 that took place for PWV members only. As PWV likes to say, our priorities on the trails are to stay safe, have fun, and do a little work...
PWV has had an amazing response from the community for restoring some 42 miles of trails severely damaged by the Cameron Peak fire with contributions to the GoFundMe campaign of over $37,000 and offers to participate in restoring the fire damaged trails.
For those interested in helping to restore the trails, PWV will be hosting community workdays on June 19, 20, July 17, 18, and August 14, 15, 21, 22. Details on volunteering and registration can be found on the https://t.co/CMJAIBjpGK website.
