Prescott NF to conduct prescribed burns in Prescott Basin through March

March 7, 2024
Fire Managers for the Prescott National Forest will conduct prescribed burns in four locations in the Prescott Basin over the rest of this month.
They plan to burn slash piles from fuel reduction and forest thinning projects beginning Thursday, pending favorable conditions. Burn sites are located along Senator Highway, Copper Basin, Walker Road and Deering Park; and smoke will be visible in the Quad Cities area. Impacts should be light, but smoke may linger in drainages and valleys at night.
