Fire Crews To Conduct Pile Burns Friday Along Highway 89A South Of Flagstaff

Coconino National Forest fire crews will be conducting hand pile burns Friday along Highway 89A. Roughly ten acres of piles south of Pine Del will be treated over the course of a few hours starting in the morning. No road closures are planned, but smoke is predicted to move northeast, and will likely be visible from Flagstaff and 89A corridors. Smoke is expected to dissipate within a few hours. Fire managers plan to burn other piles throughout the coming days in different locations around Flagstaff.
