Several small fires have already been reported along the river. Fortunately, they were detected and contained quickly!

As you enjoy outdoor activities this summer, please recreate responsibly and follow all fire restrictions. Remember: it only takes one spark to start a wildfire.

Due to increasing fire danger across Arizona, the Tonto National Forest has implemented Stage 1 Fire Restrictions and Recreational

Shooting Restrictions throughout the entire forest, effective May 15, 2026.

For complete information about current restrictions and permitted activities, please visit the Tonto National Forest website.

Thank you for helping protect our forests, communities, and natural resources.
