Firefighters will burn about 100 acres of grasses in Rocky Mountain National Park on Friday and Saturday, if conditions allow, to reduce the threat of wildfires burning near communities. The National Park Service said this prescribed burn plan is dependent on favorable weather. The 100 acres planned to burn is part of the 334-acre Headquarters Unit just west of the Beaver Meadows Visitors Center and entrance on the east side of the park.

On Friday and Saturday, visitors entering the park from the Beaver Meadows entrance may encounter some brief delays, or may be diverted to the Fall River Entrance, just northwest of Beaver Meadows. U.S. Highway 36 through the Headquarters Unit area of the park will have traffic control in place, and drivers will not be allowed to stop, or walk, along that road within the burn area. Visitors also cannot walk in the burn area.
