Due to severe wildfires in the region, some areas have decreased tree-cover resulting in greater amounts of surface runoff during increased precipitation (rain and snow). This may be exacerbated by hydrophobic soils leading to additional runoff which could overwhelm natural and man-made drainage features. Landslides, debris flows, and debris floods can result, threatening public safety and damaging infrastructure. All resource road users are advised to check local weather and safety advisories. Drive to the condition of the road and watch for hazards if heading into the backcountry. For more information on post-wildfire natural hazard risks:
