Fire restrictions go into effect for the Tonto National Forest at 8:am Thursday. Drought conditions and high temperatures have caused fire officials to prohibit most types of fire or fire causing activities across the entire Tonto National Forest. Restrictions also apply to smoking outside of a cleared area, operating internal combustion power tools or equipment with open flames. Use of petroleum fueled stoves, lanterns and heating devices are allowed.
