COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho — The Coeur d’Alene Parks Department will be burning slash piles on Tubbs Hill starting Thursday.
According to the city, burning will begin on the southeast side of Tubbs Hill at around 9 a.m. on Thursday.
This burning is being done to remove debris that has generated over the last thirteen acres of hazardous fuels treatment.
The city says while Tubbs Hill will not be closed, people are strongly encouraged to plan for trail closures as crews move across the area. There will be Trail Ambassadors on the hill to help direct people away from active burn areas and answer questions about the project.
The city parks department says it will also be placing signs at the main trailheads to let people know about the burn project.
