this is copied from the parks website... Where am I allowed to smoke in State Parks? Smoking in Oregon State Parks is allowed only in your vehicles and personal camping units, campsites and portions of day use parks designated as safety rest areas. Smoking is allowed on the ocean shore; however Oregon State Parks is asking anyone who smokes on the ocean shore to properly dispose of their cigarette butts and any other litter. Why did State Parks restrict smoking? The governor issued an Executive Order that asked all state agencies to look at ways to restrict smoking on public property in Oregon. State Parks proposed a restriction and sought public comments on it. Based on that public comment, State Parks adopted rules that address the issue in a responsible way for the properties we own and manage. Does this restriction apply to things like e-cigarettes, chewing tobacco and medical marijuana? The restriction applies to smoking of tobacco products only. Park visitors can use e-cigarettes and chewing tobacco, but the medical marijuana laws prohibit its use in view of the public, so it cannot be used in any public area of a park. May I smoke in day use areas? Portions of 27 day use areas have been designated as safety rest areas by the Oregon Department of Transportation through an agreement with State Parks. The safety rest area portion of those properties is excluded from smoking restrictions, so you can smoke in those specific areas. Parks with designated safety rest areas are listed below.

Carl, thank you but the Park Ranger explained to me that the August 22nd mandate of no Salem area parks or State Parks for fires hasn't been lifted yet so she told me for no smoking. Thanks for the official policy and I will have to make another phone call to see if vapors are excepted (even though she said "no")
