Love this place. Timing was almost perfect for wild iris blooming - meadows were carpeted with them! Recent rains made area lush and cool.

Clear Creek CG is one of the finest sites we have enjoyed in NM, ever. All roads to and inside the site are paved, each camp site has a paved pad around the FS picnic table & fire pit. The water table is low, but the creek is flowing. Potable (cold & fresh) water via a hand-pump is working fine. Pit-toilets were clean & well stocked. Bring bug spray & fly traps. The forest is mature, large diameter mixed conifers & aspen. We discovered "abandoned" FS roads all around the CG venturing into the NF in "almost every" direction; the slopes are generally moderate hiking level; mountain biking I would rate moderate +; easy-peasy FT are limited to the valley floor. It's a 3-mile drive on FS 70 from NM 126 to TH for San Gregorio Reservoir, a very nice lake inside the San Pedro Wilderness that's less than a mile to hike on a easy grade FT that is well maintained (read, good family hike with children.) Cellphone coverage is very low to gone, it's hit & miss where to get just 1 bar in the CG or in this general area. Back to NM 126 drive (and out) the highway is well maintained, but steep in many places; slow going up and "watch the brakes" driving out & down to Cuba, NM (which have small general stores & fuel.) Please do not go to this campsite so we can have our pick of reservation dates on the required Recreation.gov website ;) Cheers & enjoy...
