| Description |
A trail crew of Coconino National Forest employees (Adrian, Kyle, and Ring) and Arizona Civilian Conservation Corps volunteers (Ben and Lindsay) worked their way through Fossil Springs Wilderness from Fossil Springs Trailhead to Flume Trailhead for three days. They picked up trash, made repairs and improvements to Fossil Springs and Flume trails, added signs to make it easier for hikers to find their way, and cleared brush and overgrowth from the trails. The crew camped at the Fossil Creek Dam to give them access to the areas where they would be working. Camping is otherwise strictly prohibited at this site, which is in the no camping zone that starts at the dam and extends for several miles downstream. Next to the old Fossil Creek Dam, a series of foundations and rock walls remain from the homes of workers who manned the diversion dam and related facilities. Built in 1908, the dam, flume, power plant, and other facilities were decommissioned in 2005, allowing Fossil Creek to run free for the first time in nearly 100 years. The creek was granted the designation "Wild and Scenic River" in 2009, one of only two rivers given this special designation in the state of Arizona. The site is in Fossil Springs Wilderness, which was established in 1984. During the spring-summer season, camping is prohibited in Fossil Springs Wilderness and the surrounding area, and a reserved parking permit is required to park at the trailheads that access the Wilderness. See Fossil Springs Wilderness and Fossil Creek on the USFS Coconino National Forest website for maps, regulations, permit reservations, and other details. Photo by Deborah Lee Soltesz.
