Old Fall River Road in Rocky Mountain National Park has reopened after the Cameron Peak Fire forced officials to close it nearly four weeks ago, the park said Wednesday.
Visitors are encouraged to check weather and fire conditions before going into the backcountry and should expect smoke in the area, the park said in a news release.
As of Wednesday, the wildfire had burned about 125,000 acres and was only 22% contained, according to officials.
The following trails are still closed:
- Mummy Pass Trail
- Mirror Lake Trail
- Poudre River Trail
- Crater Trail
- Colorado River Trail
- Red Mountain Trail
- Grand Ditch Access
- Skeleton Gulch Train
- Thunder Pass Trail
- Little Yellowstone Trail
- Holzwarth Historic Site access beyond the historic site
Backcountry zones that remain closed include Cascade Creek, Cache La Poudre, South Cache La Poudre, Hague Creek and Mosquito Creek
Old Fall River Road will close to cars for the season on Monday, the park said.
