- Engineering projects such as road repair and replacement of culverts
- Timber management activities such as log harvesting and hauling during active timber sales
Travel within the following areas may be affected due to increased frequency of heavy equipment traveling on forest service roads, delays, or temporary road and area closures. As you are driving on all Forest Service roads, please be aware you may be sharing the road with large trucks and heavy equipment.
