In addition, campfires are not allowed at the designated dispersed camp sites within the Prescott Basin on the Prescott National Forest. Metal posts identify designated dispersed sites with a number.

Please remember the following campfire safety:

        Make a fire only if you have a shovel and sufficient water to put it out. Never leave your campfire unattended.
        Avoid making a campfire during the windy part of the day. Winds usually diminish at night when a campfire is welcome. Keep your campfire as small as practical.
        To make sure your campfire is out, drown with water and stir with dirt, making sure all burned materials are extinguished. Feel with your hand to make sure it’s out cold.

The fire restrictions will remain in place until the Forests receive significant precipitation.  Violation of the prohibitions is punishable by a fine of not more than $5,000, imprisonment for not more than six months, or both.  Fireworks are always prohibited on National Forest land.
