2019 Rx burn on public lands
BLM fire crews burned roughly 50 piles of thinned hazardous trees and fuels along the Smalley Road, which leads to the visitor center in Auberry within the San Joaquin River Gorge Recreation Area in Fresno and Madera counties. Smoke may be visible for a couple days in Auberry, Prather and North Fork. Hikers and walkers may wish to choose an alternate route than the Nature Trail Loop.
