Maintenance workers at Montezuma Well will be diverting the water to the ditch at the outlet area for the month of December through mid-January, and access will be limited. Visitors will still be able to go down the steps and across the footbridge, but will be stopped by barricades just beyond the foot bridge. Workers will be conducting work where the large sycamore crosses the ditch.
Work will occur sporadically Monday - Friday 8 AM to 2:30 PM, but not on weekends. The water will remain diverted for the entire month since keeping the site dry is critical to completion of the work. The public may inquire about this routine maintenance project by contacting our headquarters office at 928-567-5276.
The National Park Service celebrates its 100th Anniversary in 2016. Over 20,000 National Park Service employees care for America’s 413 national parks and monuments and create close-to-home recreational and cultural opportunities.
