— from San Juan County Parks, Recreation and Fair —
Due to extremely dry conditions, a burn ban is now in effect at all San Juan County parks and campgrounds. At this time briquettes may be used in designated fire rings and propane cook stoves are allowed for cooking. County Parks asks that the public exercise great care with all flammable items. Also, remember that personal fireworks are banned in all of San Juan County.
County Parks will issue an update if the situation changes.
Thank you for your consideration.
