Coronado Forest To Close June 9


Due to Extreme Fire Danger


 Tucson, AZ (June 6, 2011) – Due to extreme fire danger and concern for public safety, the Coronado National Forest will be closed to all public use beginning at noon on Thursday, June 9 (36 CFR 261.52[e]).


 


The temporary closure applies to all Ranger Districts of the Coronado National Forest, and includes Visitor Centers, campgrounds, picnic areas, trails, summer cabins, organization camps and all other public uses.  District Rangers may authorize use for specifically permitted activities through Special-Use Permits.  Violation of the closure is punishable by a fine of not more than $5,000, or imprisonment for not more than six months, or both.



 On the Santa Catalina Ranger District, the Catalina Highway (Mt. Lemmon Highway) will remain open during daylight hours so visitors may access Summerhaven atop Mt. Lemmon.  Vehicles may not stop along the highway, and must use it strictly to access Summerhaven.  The road will be closed at night.



 This closure will be lifted when significant moisture is received to reduce the wildfire threat to manageable levels.
