Does anyone know if Las Conchas fire closure has been lifted. I called the Jemez Springs Forest Service and recorded msg was not clear.

Thanks George, I was talking about the Thompson Ridge fire. Was hoping to get one more day of climbing in, before the Monday closure. But I guess not. El Rito is part of Carson I think along with Tres. I wonder how much longer Carson will stay out of Stage III?

We chatted with a FS ranger yesterday near El Rito and were surprised to learn Carson isn't even in Stage II yet but will likely enter Stage II before the Fourth of July. Prediction: El Rito will be packed this weekend.
Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
