The Bureau of Land Management has amended the emergency closure order associated with the No Man Fire along Canton Creek and Pass Creek on lands administered by the BLM, Roseburg District.

A BLM release said the amended order updates the BLM lands that will remain closed until such time as conditions allow for safe use of public lands. Access to the 24-5-21 and 21.5 roads will remain restricted until further notice.

Swiftwater Field Manager Michael Korn said, “We ask that the public continue to be cautious, watch for fire vehicle activity on the roadways and be aware there may be remaining closures on adjacent federal lands”. Korn said, “Removing this closure will allow access to the public in the Canton Creek drainage past the Scaredman campground and day use area.
