Eagle County lifting fire restrictions Friday

Chris Dillmann/cdillmann@vaildaily.com Fire managers and officials with state and local agencies have agreed to officially rescind all fire restrictions in Eagle County beginning Friday at 12:01 a.m. one minute past midnight. Officials agree that recent moisture, increased humidity and cooler overnight temperatures have helped reduce the current fire danger. Officials still recommend using precautions as conditions remain dry and diligence is always needed in ensuring campfires are completely out and watched closely when in use. Still, it’s relatively easy to start a wildfire. “Just because we’ve come out of restrictions doesn’t mean there’s no risk,“ said Kelsha Anderson, a public information officer with the White River National Forest, adding that most of the forest is still quite dry.

Below-average snowpack, combined with a cool, moist period in this stretch of May, has eased runoff into local creeks and rivers. All that could change with torrential rain, or a sustained warm spell could swell local streams. For now, though, streamflows up and down the valley are well below 30-year medians. That doesn’t bode well for summer. Virtually all of Colorado’s Western Slope is in either “extreme” or “exceptional” drought
