NMGF News:

The kids’ pond at Seven Springs Hatchery four miles north of Fenton Lake State Park in Sandoval County is closed because of firefighting efforts surrounding the McKinney Fire.

The pond and surrounding roads are closed to allow for dipping of water and access for fire crews.

New Mexico Department of Game and Fish biologists and hatchery staff are putting together a plan to prioritize the relocation of fish inventories at the hatchery should that become necessary.
