State and federal land management agencies will lift Stage 1 fire restrictions within the Boise Fire Restriction Area (see map below) effective 12:01 a.m. Sept. 3, as wildfire danger has decreased over the past week.

The restrictions were put in place on Aug. 7 when fire danger and burning conditions were unusually high. Current conditions no longer meet the criteria outlined in the Idaho State Fire Restrictions Plan to remain in Stage 1.

Officials urge visitors to continue to be cautious when recreating on state endowment and public lands. Although restrictions are lifted, fire season is not over and human-caused wildfires remain a threat.

Tips to help prevent wildfire:
• Never leave a campfire unattended.
• Keep water and a shovel nearby.
• Make sure your fire is dead out and cold to the touch before you leave.
• Fireworks and exploding targets are prohibited on federal and state lands.

Fall is also an ideal time to apply Firewise principles around your property. Learn about the home ignition zone and defensible space by searching online or contacting your local land management office. Fire prevention specialists and foresters can help connect landowners with resources to reduce wildfire risk.

MEET THE OWNER

Austin has always had an entrepreneurial spirit, starting his first “real” business in 2014 while in college at Indiana University. He started stump grinding in 2017 while in Indiana before joining the military. Austin served one contract in the US Army and afterwards decided to move to Blackfoot, ID, in hopes of being more involved in a smaller, local community, much like where he grew up in small-town Indiana. Part of that dream was to continue his stump grinding company in hopes of providing a beneficial service to residents, being accountable to community and neighbors, and pouring into and giving back to the people of southeastern Idaho. 

You can trust that Austin will do what he says, deliver on his promises, and remain accountable and responsible to his southeastern Idaho community. When Woods Stump Removal shows up at your property, you can trust that you will be treated like a neighbor.

“Leave it better than you found it.”
