STRAWBERRY, AZ — The Coconino National Forest announced that the Fossil Creek recreation area will remain closed for the rest of the year “as the area continues to recover from the impact of the 2021 Backbone Fire".
“We understand that the public is eager to get back to enjoying Fossil Creek’s natural beauty, but public safety is of utmost importance,” said Alex Schlueter, Deputy District Ranger for the Red Rock Ranger District. “These areas, especially waterways like Fossil Creek located beneath a fire scar, remain dangerous long after the flames have subsided,” Schlueter said in a news release.
According to officials, lightning caused the Backbone Fire on June 16, 2021. The fire burned over 40,000 acres west of Pine and Strawberry, Arizona.
