Help Us Keep Our Trails Open!

May 4, 2020

trail through forest

Getting outside is important for our physical and emotional health. Local trail networks give us space to exercise and see other people. However, it is vital that social distancing guidelines are maintained.

Please respect the land and protect your health and the health of others by abiding by the following:

  • Maintain at least 6 feet of distance between yourself and other hikers at all times. Step off the trail if needed to allow others to pass safely. 
  • Follow CDC guidelines for pets. Keep your dogs on leash at all times and at least 6 feet away from others. 
  • Please respect the natural world and other trail users. Carry out all trash and leave no trace. 
  • If the parking area is full, find another place to hike or come back later. Do not park illegally as this will prevent our first responder emergency vehicles from safely using the road.
