Check for air quality at any of these three locations ; Crescent City is in the north of the Parks, Klamath is in the middle, and Orick is in the southern end of the Parks.Air Quality Index (AQI) Information and Smoke MapsAirNow.Gov provides AQI information for any area, as well as fire and smoke maps for the USA.
