BLM fire crews planning prescribed burn northwest of Cañon City
CAÑON CITY, Colo. – The Bureau of Land Management is preparing to conduct a prescribed burn in the Deer Haven area, approximately 15 miles northwest of Cañon City, south of High Park Road, and west of County Road 69 in northern Fremont County.
Implementation of the prescribed fire project could take place between the week of March 8 and mid-April, depending on favorable weather and fuel moisture conditions.
Approximately 107 acres of BLM-managed land will be treated to reduce accumulated hazardous fuel and improve wildlife habitat. Targeted fuels include ponderosa pine, Gambel oak, decadent grasses, and other ground fuel that has accumulated since previous treatments.
