Re: Fire restrictions lifted in Jefferson County

Jefferson County, Co. – Effective at 9 a.m. on October 25, the Jefferson County Sheriff lifted the temporary fire restriction order for all areas of unincorporated Jefferson County. Recent rainfall and cooler temperatures have reduced the danger of wildfire; however, people are encouraged to be vigilant as the danger of fire is always present in the high country. Many people will continue to enjoy the mountains and parks through the remainder of the season and citizens should be reminded to use caution when starting and extinguishing campfires, disposing of lighted cigarettes, and other activities that involve the use of fire or sparks. Warm and windy days can quickly lower the fuel moisture content of trees and grasses, making them susceptible to ignition.
