No matter where your adventures take you this weekend, remember to make safety part of the plan.✅
Heading into the backcountry? Be sure to check the weather and pack accordingly. Monsoonal moisture has made afternoon thunderstorms more common and conditions can change fast, bringing lighting, heavy rain and the potential for flash flooding.🌊
Going camping? Colorado Parks and Wildlife is reporting increased human-bear conflicts across the state. Secure food and trash, and never keep them inside your tent.⛺
Planning to go boating or paddleboarding? Wear a life jacket, and never operate a vehicle, boat or OHV while impaired.🛥
Although Delta County has downgraded from Stage 2 to Stage 1 fire restrictions, wildfire risk remains. Check the restrictions for your destination, use fire only where permitted, and make sure it is extinguished before leaving.🔥
Enjoy the long weekend, and stay safe. Our administrative offices will be closed on Monday, September 7th, but deputies will be on duty. Call us if you need us!
