Twin Peaks Campground

As a current camper at Twin Peaks, I think that this question would be best directed to the Park's NPS resident law enforcement Ranger(s) or to The Customs and Border Protection experts (Border Patrol). I do know that The Lukeville Border Crossing has recently reopened after a short shutdown to reallocate the Lukeville resources elsewhere temporarily....

Best to call the park directly for current information. We didn't have any trouble and drove down to "the wall". There are checkpoints on the highway but they just waved us through. (Gray haired caucasians) There are warnings not to pick up hitchhikers....

We had no issues at all except that we followed the ranger's recommendation to not go to the road along the border. That piece of advice and the news on the TV are the only ways I knew about the activity at the border. From what I understand, the problem is largely people seeking asylum and presenting themselves to border control instead of trying to sneak further into the US.None of the other people we talked to had issues or concerns....

We've stayed at Twin Peaks three times and have yet to encounter anybody other than fellow campers. Stay away from the border and you shouldn't have any problems....

I agree with all of the responders. We've stayed there 3 times (annually) and will be there in February. We've had no issues at all. The campground is a 7 miles from the border (six as the crow flies). So, it is not right at the border. As REN3 suggested, if this is a very real concern, it would be best to contact the Border Patrol or the Park's Rangers....

We recently stayed at this (wonderful) campground for a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. Not once did we feel there was any kind of security risk or did we see people walking around that looked like they didn't belong....
