IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI)— Federal and state agencies will implement Stage 1 fire restrictions across central and eastern Idaho starting this Friday, August 7. The U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and Idaho Department of Lands ordered the restrictions due to very high fire danger and dry conditions on rangelands and forested lands. The restrictions are intended to decrease the chance of preventable human-caused wildfires on federal, state and private lands. In central Idaho, the restrictions cover portions of Custer County north and east of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, excluding the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness. Officials advise visitors to check with the Caribou-Targhee National Forest, the BLM Idaho Falls District or the Idaho Department of Lands for specific local updates before traveling.
