Pinecrest, CA…If conditions permit, prescribed burning operations will occur along the Crabtree Road between Cold Springs and Pinecrest for the next three days (June 21st- June 23rd). Crabtree Road will be closed from Highway 108 to the intersection of Forest Road 4N11/4N26 to protect the safety of firefighters and the public during prescribed burn operations.

Communities of Cold Springs, Pinecrest, and Strawberry are expected to experience unhealthy to very unhealthy air quality conditions. The smoke will likely lift during the day, but may resettle after nightfall.

We will provide an update once Crabtree Road is safe to re-open.
