I've read this campground is closed but there isn't any conclusive information. What do you know?

I would be guessing too, but would have to agree that there is probably no host there now. However, if I were travelling in that area, I might try to see if the campsites are accessible. I don't remember there being a gate. There is BLM land at lower elevation west of I25, N & S of Socorro.

It's open year round 365 days. During the off season there is no host and the small "welcome" building is closed. The camp spots and trails are always open and cost $5 a day via self pay box/slot. I DON'T KNOW IF A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN WILL CLOSE IT 🙁

I was there this weekend (4/5 - 4/7/2019) and it was open. They are still working on the water system and it is not yet operational. We did see Carlos, the campground host. He is living off-site until the water system repairs have been completed. He did not have a completion date he could share with us. Still - If you visit you will find it very quiet and enjoyable!! You will need to bring water; the store in Datil has gallon jugs of water. The hike is great!

I am guessing that it is closed for the season. It is at high elevation in a remote area. When we were there in September, there was a host. The conditions would be too harsh for a host at this time of year.

We stayed here at the end of September. Could be closed for the season?
