Reserve, NM, March 30, 2017'For Immediate Release. The Gila National Forest, Reserve District will be implementing a campground closure for the Willow Creek Campground until Memorial Day.

District Ranger John Pierson said: "The creek crossing at the campground is unsafe and we find it necessary to close this campground so the crossing can be repaired for the safety of our visitors."

The district anticipates road crews to begin working on the crossing within the next month and have it repaired so that the campground can be re-opened for Memorial Day Weekend.
