Take Care Out There Toolkit
As interest in Oregon’s outdoor recreation grows, so does the need to preserve and protect our treasured natural assets. Until now there has been no master toolkit for how to share our values for recreating with respect. Prompted by the Oregon Outdoor Recreation Initiative, a diverse group of stakeholders participated in the development of “Take Care Out There,” a new communication toolkit to help promote responsible recreation in Oregon and ensure outdoor opportunities for health, connection and joy for generations to come.

Know Before You Go
Oregon has a large number of post-fire recreation area closures across many land management agencies due to the 2020 wildfire season. There was a need for a 'one-stop-shop' map for the public to be able to understand where these closures are to help the public plan ahead, avoid closed areas, and recreate safely outdoors.
