The summer fishing season at Pecos National Historical Park is delayed indefinitely due to the continued extreme risk of wildfire. Ranch House, Civil War, and backcountry pueblo tours are also canceled until fire risk abates. The park’s visitor center and Ancestral Sites Trail remain open to the public at this time. These restrictions are being put in place to help the National Park Service provide for public safety and reduce fire risk.
