Oak Yucca And Locust Group Picnic Sites
The Oak Flat Group picnic site includes a combination of three different picnic sites and a trailhead, that border four communal playing fields suitable for all sorts of outdoor games. The site is paved and accessible. It is a great place for play, rest and recreation. The picnic sites are surrounded by ponderosa pine forest, mixed with oak, pinon, juniper, and plenty of yucca plants -- New Mexico's state flower.

The sheltered sites are replicas of the mid-1930s Civilian Conservation Corps design.
