The public will once again be able to enjoy campfires in non-designated areas as Stage 1 Fire Restrictions will end on many federal and state public lands in south central Idaho.
Firefighters are working on fire lines on a fire that started at around midnight Thursday just several miles from an existing fire about 50 miles west of Twin Falls.
Campfires and propane-fueled devices have been banned at north Idaho State Parks while other federal agencies have expanded fire restrictions in southern Idaho as fire conditions worsen.
The Bureau of Land Management and Idaho Department of Lands will begin Stage One Fire Restrictions on Friday (7/2) to help prevent wildfires as dry conditions persist in the area around the Wood River Valley.
