Oregon Public Lands Fire Closures and Information

This page is no longer being updated. Just assume the whole state is on fire.

Important Note: Central Oregon, including Ochoco NF and Prineville BLM, is being hit very hard this year. I expect the web sites are running behind actual fire dangers and closures as of late July. Be sure to check real-time sources such as Watch Duty before recreating in this area. Better yet, go somewhere else.

Please note that it is impossible for this list to be completely up to date during active wildfire season! My primary goal is to keep track of closed trails for hiking. If you’re planning to venture out into the wilderness during fire season, please check live resources such as Watch Duty or Facebook for current information.

Also note that expiration dates on fire closure orders are often updated when the fire is out and conditions on the ground can be evaluated. In some cases they have extended for multiple years beyond the initial closure date.
