Six Mile Canyon Reopening In Good Weather

There are several of us "chafing at the bit" in Jamestown for Six Mile Canyon in neighboring Cibola National Forest to reopen the day after tomorrow. Since we have to social distance ourselves for the next couple of weeks (maybe even longer), we can at least put that into practice when off-roading in the forest and have a good time while doing so.

We just hope the National Forest Service remembers to unlock and open the gate!

The weather, at least, is cooperating this week and will be warmer in the next few days.
