Blackhawk Ranch Outdoor Fire Ban

All outdoor fires, including campfires are banned on Blackhawk Ranch until further notice. 

Las Animas County currently is in a Stage 2 Fire Restriction and Huerfano County is in a Stage 1 Fire Restriction due to an extremely dry winter, multiple red flag warnings and low humidity. Because Blackhawk Ranch is located in both counties, the POA will follow the Stage 2 fire restrictions for outdoor fires of any kind.  Also prohibited is the use of charcoal grills and outdoor smoking.  You may use propane stoves outdoors if it is equipped with an on/off switch.

Further information on the county fire restrictions, can be found at the following:

• Stage 1 Fire Restrictions Effective March 31, 2026 - Huerfano County Government

Please abide by the county and POA fire restrictions.

Thank you

Road Safety Reminder

As you may have heard, a car accident happened on the Ranch a couple days ago. The cause was poor lane management.

One of our neighbors was injured and taken to the ER in Walsenburg. They are home now, but recovery time will be lengthy. Both vehicles were heavily damaged, one of which was destroyed by fire. Luckily, the fire did not spread very far from the car.

There are reasons for the 20 mph speed limit on Ranch roads. Not every curve has a long sight line. Not every straight stretch is smooth and without washboard.. Consideration for the roads themselves, wildlife, and most certainly other folks who use the same roads is paramount to driving safety in our area.

Please, drive with care, abide the speed limit, and protect each other.
