Burn Ban and restrictions

As of 6/4/2025 Chelan County banned all campfires on private lands; stage 2 restrictions are in effect. 

As of 7/2/2025 The Forest Service has banned all campfires on National Forest lands.

As a reminder, LWFR does not set or enforce these regulations. We do extinguish fires that pose an imminent threat and will continue to share burn restrictions as they change. Propane fire pits are allowed and are a safe alternative during dry periods.
