Fires Force Park Closures in Central Oregon | Portland News
Description
John Day Fossil Beds National Monument remains closed as wildfires rage across Central Oregon, with varying impacts across its three units: Painted Hills saw minor damage to grass, trees, and fences; Sheep Rock and its visitor center are shut due to the Shingle Fire and evacuation warnings; Clarno was saved by firefighters who stopped flames from crossing Highway 18. Fire danger remains extreme—roads could close without warning. The park’s safety-first approach means reopening is uncertain for now.
