Due to increased fire behavior and expected growth on the Nash Fire located on the Willamette National Forest northwest of Cascades Lake Hwy, the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office is issuing a Level 1 (Ready) Evacuation Notice for the following areas:
Areas surrounding Elk Lake and Hosmer Lake including: Elk Lake Resort, Elk Lake CG, Point CG, Little Fawn CG, Mallard Marsh CG, Sunset View Day Use Area, Beach Day Use Area, and Quinn Meadows Horse Camp.
Level 1: Means "BE READY" for potential evacuation. Residents should be aware of the danger that exists in their area, monitor emergency services websites and local media outlets for information. This is the time for preparation and precautionary movements of persons with special needs, mobile property and (under certain circumstances) pets and livestock. If conditions worsen, emergency services personnel may contact you via an emergency notification system.
The Sheriff's Office will continue to coordinate with the United States Forest Service and the incident management team assigned to the fire.
