New Jersey: stage 2 campfire restrictions and high fire danger in southern NJ

The New Jersey Forest Service (NJFFS) has implemented stage 2 campfire restrictions in Division A (northern New Jersey) and Cape May, Salem, and Cumberland counties in Division C (southern New Jersey). In addition, High Fire Danger has expanded to include Division C. See this post from the NJFFS for more information. A map showing the coverage area for all the Divisions may be found on this NJFFS webpage. This map may has a lot of detail, showing the sections within the Division as well as primary and secondary response areas. However, it does not show the counties. I will list the counties included in each Division below the images.




  • Division A (northern NJ) Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Warren, Hopewell Township in Mercer County, Union, Hunterdon, Middlesex (north of Raritan River)
  • Division B (Central NJ: Burlington, Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex (south of the Raritan River), Mercer County except Hopewell Township
  • Division C (Southern NJ): Atlantic, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester and Salem
