Pine Creek Prescribed Fire Project Planned in Wayne County, Utah

Beginning April 3, 2023, the U.S. Forest Service-Fishlake National Forest plans to burn approximately 100 acres of activity fuels (slash) on the Fremont River Ranger District, in Wayne County Utah. The project is located 8 miles south of Bicknell, along the North Slope of Boulder Mountain, between Government Creek and Pine Creek, on Forest Service-administered lands. The target area contains scattered cut/cured pinyon and juniper slash from earlier hand thinning efforts, from the spring of 2022.
