Government Spring/Westville Fire areas opening

Postby hemingray » Thu Jul 24, 2008 2:30 pm

Wow, both sides of the North Fork American River area, closed by the Government Spring/Westville fire are opening up.

To wit (from YubaNet's fire info page, TNF's most recent web update is July 4 and 10)

Due to the minimal fire activity and greatly reduced amount of fire equipment and personnel, all roads are open this morning including the Foresthill Divide Road and the 19 Road (Texas Hill/Mears Roads).

The public is urged to drive cautiously as some fire equipment is still in the area. The burned area adjacent to the roads has numerous hazards and should be avoided.

The following trails are reopened: Euchre Bar, Italian Bar and American Eagle.

The following facilities are reopened: China Wall OHV Staging Area; the Tunnel Mills, North Fork, Onion Valley and Mumford Bar Trailhead campgrounds.


There are a number of trails still closed - going down into the canyon, where much of the fire was.
