Several areas in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area have been closed due to water contamination. The National Park Service says they have temporarily shut down those areas showing high levels of fecal bacteria out of concern for public safety.
Water contamination closures affect these Lake Mead areas
- Arizona Hot Springs Trail
- Arizona Hot Springs
- White Rock Canyon parking lot on Highway 93.
“Officials are taking corrective action to improve water quality over the next several days,” the National Park Service said in a statement last week. “We will reopen these areas once water quality meets federal and state safety standards.”

This is a great “heads up” for one of the yearly RV southern migration stops
I agree. It appears to be a Lake Mojave issue, South of lake Mead proper but still a part of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. Not actually Lake Mead proper.
I’m not stocking you Bill, I just opened up the report for the first time today and you coincidentally, just commented.
Go ahead and keep “stocking” me. I almost always appreciate your knowledge on so many different subjects
