Lassen Forest on High Fire Alert | Reno News

Lassen National Forest is on high alert as extreme fire danger looms — with dry vegetation, windy conditions, and record heat turning the forest into a tinderbox. Starting Monday, strict new fire restrictions go into effect until December 1st (possibly sooner if rain arrives), limiting campfires, stoves, smoking, welding, and engine use — all requiring permits in designated areas. Officials warn this year’s fire risk is unusually severe, and with firefighting resources stretched thin across the country, proactive measures are critical to protect communities, visitors, and firefighters.
