The Kaibab National Forest will implement Stage 1 campfire and smoking restrictions across the entire Williams and Tusayan Ranger Districts beginning at 8 a.m. Friday. Due to different weather and fuel conditions, the North Kaibab Ranger District, north of Grand Canyon National Park, will not be implementing fire restrictions at this time. Under these restrictions fires, campfires, charcoal, coal and wood stoves are prohibited, except within the specific developed recreation sites.
