“Visitors should make sure they clear down to mineral soil five feet in all directions around the campfire, drown their campfire with water and possess a shovel. During windy weather conditions campfires should be avoided.” Woodcutting is allowed year round with a valid Personal Use Woodcutting permit. As the majority of roads in the forest will be under snow or too wet to travel on during the winter, woodcutters are advised to obtain their wood early. Due to a 2005 court order wheeled motorized vehicles on the Eldorado National Forest can only be operated on system motorized roads and trails as shown in the free Motorized Vehicle Restriction map available at Eldorado National Forest offices. For more information on woodcutting or recreation opportunities, contact any Eldorado National Forest Ranger Station or visit the website at www.fs.fed.us/r5/eldorado .
