Flagstaff AZ (December 13, 2012) – In anticipation of the approaching winter weather, engineers on the Flagstaff Ranger District plan to close many forest roads in the Flagstaff area tomorrow. A road is closed when snow and/or rain make it vulnerable to damage by wheeled vehicles and a safety hazard for travelers. Though road closures generally occur winter through spring, closures and re-openings aren’t dependent on a specific timeline, but rather the conditions of the roads themselves. The Coconino NF encourages every visitor to Know Before You Go.
Road conditions are updated regularly on the Coconino NF website at http://www.fs.usda.gov/detailfull/coconino/home/?cid=fsbdev3_054776&width=full (or you can navigate to the main page www.fs.usda.gov/coconino and choose “District Road Status” in the “Quick Links” on the right).
Visitors can also contact the Flagstaff Ranger Station at 928-526-0866 for forest road status around Flagstaff.
