WOODLAND PARK — The Pikes Peak Ranger District is planning to conduct pile-burning operations in the West Schubarth Rx unit.
The proposed burn will take place off of Forest Service Roads 300 and 307A, east of Woodland Park and North of Rampart Reservoir.
The Ranger District plans to burn 1,000 piles as dictated by the smoke permit.
Smoke may be visible along the US-24 corridor from Woodland Park.
