Roads and recreation sites in Schultz burn area closed due to flooding


Flagstaff, AZ –
Last night’s storm produced over 2.5 inches of rain in some portions of the Schultz burn area. Due to damage caused by flooding, the following areas are temporarily closed:

 

  • Waterline Road
  • Little Elden Springs Horse Camp
  • Elden Springs Road (Forest Road 556) west of private property
  • Schultz Pass Road (FR 420) from the northern entrance to Schultz Tank. The road and Schultz Tank Trailhead can still be accessed via Highway 180. 

 

The extent of damage to other trails in the area -- including Little Bear, Little Elden, and Sandy Seep – is still unknown. Coconino National Forest crews will be assessing the trails over the next couple days to determine whether any closures are necessary.
