Trail conditions are: Closed.

Trails were barely acceptable before Friday's rain so the rainfall was enough to prompt a closure.  It's been a crummy week.  Hoping to re-open the trails some time Saturday but that will require an inspection first.  Check back here for updates before heading out this weekend.


WARNING: The first bridge upstream from the USGS station on Beach trail is rotting/failing at the upstream end.  Use caution!

1. Maintain the integrity of existing trails.

2. Identify areas for improvement on existing trails and execute sound practices to reduce impact on surrounding environment.

3. Design and construct trails to minimize both risk of user harm and environmental impact from all reasonably anticipated trail use for life of trail.

4. Solicit guidance from local historians to design, construct and/or modify trails that provide low impact access to cultural and historical features and landmarks.

5. Repair trail damage resulting from severe weather events, fallen trees, debris and improper trail use (ex. muddy surface riding, unauthorized re-routes, etc.).

6. Educate trail users, especially cyclists, on proper trail use etiquette.
