News out that due to lack of firefighting resources and the dry conditions, fires in campgrounds are no longer allowed starting Tuesday August 24th.
I have not seen it posted on the Forest Service site yet, still only the May 24th posting.

I called the Bishop INFS office this afternoon. They have not heard of the fire restrictions you are referring too.

My wife saw this posted on a Facebook Rock Creek Campground site and forwarded it to me. Even though I researched via Inyo National Forest page and saw no new restrictions since the May alert, I went with it.
More research on my part produced this:
INYO COUNTY TEMPORARILY BANS CAMPFIRES
AND OPEN FLAMES IN COUNTY-MANAGED CAMPGROUNDS
INYO COUNTY, August 20, 2021 – Due to extreme fire danger, limited firefighting resources, and ongoing drought, today the Inyo County Board of Supervisors ordered fire restrictions in County-managed campgrounds until further notice. The County-managed campgrounds affected by this order include: Pleasant Valley; Baker Creek; Tinnemaha; Taboose; Portuguese Joe; Independence; and, Diaz Lake. The County fire restrictions do not apply to County campgrounds managed by a concessionaire or to privately-owned campgrounds.
So once again Facebook strikes! Someone posts info not related to an area. Thats why I do not do Facebook, and the main reason for keeping up this site, reliable information mostly from first hand knowledge from members.
I knew better but went with it anyway. Sorry all.... I will make three deserts at the next CLUB gathering as punishment.

Still no posting on the INF website. But probably reliable info Waldorf due to it is the Management company for the campgrounds and camphosts.

I’ll not be very happy with INFS if they knew about the restriction and decided to wait until the 24 the to post it. I wouldn’t be surprised tho….
BTW…… never have been on Facebook, and would never sign up.
You are forgiven!
Please don’t ever say “Facebook” on this site.
