June 25, 2012

Forest officials announced Monday they are closing part of Sycamore Creek in the Tonto National Forest.

They say they are worried impending monsoon storms could cause flash floods. One of those areas is the Sunflower burn area. So far that fire is 80 percent contained. The Sunflower fire has burned approximately 17,500 acres of the upper watershed for Sycamore Creek.
