It’s Fire SeasonFire season has kicked into gear. A fire located in the White River area of the Mt. Hood National Forest is causing road and trail closures adjacent to popular 44 Trails riding areas. You can get the latest details on White River fire closures on the InciWeb site.
At this time, popular trails like Knebal, High Prairie, 15 Mile, 8 Mile, Surveyor’s, etc are all open.
The main areas impacted by fire closures include Crane Creek, Crane Prairie, Boulder Lake, Forest Creek, Hidden Meadows, Bonney Meadows. Bennett Pass is also effected. Anyone planning to head that way should re-evaluate their plans and read the detailed fire closures information.
The 44 Trails are still under snow at the moment, but we’ve set our calendar for 2019 trail work days.
First priority is to wrap up the Surveyor’s ridge reroute trail, and then we have more new projects in the works.
All work days are scheduled for 9am-2pm and require longs pants, gloves, helmets (hardhats) and tools. Specific details will post a couple weeks before each trail day.
