INYO NATIONAL FOREST--FLOOD RESPONSE
Publication Type: Announcement 07/05/2023
ALERT—NOTICE: Before Heading to the Forest, have a Backup Plan. Be Open to Finding a New Favorite Area to Enjoy.
- National Forest facilities, roads and parking areas might be under snow. Have a Plan B in place just in case and don't park illegally. Learn more: https://www.fs.usda.gov/main/r5/alert-notices
Know Before You Go. Check in with local Forest Service offices for closures and alerts. Use forest websites and social media for updates on sites and trails for the 18 national forests in California. It is your responsibility to know the area and any restrictions to areas, roads and trails within the national forests.
Observe all posted signs and warnings. There may not be barriers or signs at each closed location. Remember, GPS is not always reliable with current closures and conditions.
Be aware of your surroundings. Many campgrounds and hiking trails are near lakes and rivers with changing water conditions. Water could be colder and swifter with the record-breaking snowpack now melting. And no matter how tempting, do not park your car illegally and block emergency vehicle access.
