Fire restrictions are tightened on federally controlled land in Arizona due to ongoing wildfire danger
CNN
Campfires and other activities were banned Friday on Arizona federal land as crews battle two massive wildfires that have charred more than 150,000 acres over the past week, officials said.
The Telegraph and Mescal Fires, both burning nearly 100 miles east of Phoenix, began earlier this month and continue to engulf the area. The US Bureau of Land Management on Friday issued fire restrictions on the federal land it controls due to dry and hot conditions.More Related News
