Report Trail Conditions

Did you encounter a blown down tree on the trail? How about a water source that has dried up, a washout or water running over the trail? Report these problems or other needed trail maintenance to people who can help by emailing the trail reports hotline. Praise for the hard work done by these volunteers is always appreciated! When sending your report, include the name of the trail, the town, and the distance to the problem from a good landmark (campsite, trail head, road crossing, etc.). The more accurate your distance information, the sooner the problem is likely to receive attention. Thanks for your help!

Special Notices

8/14/09 - The Plateau Campsite has been closed permanently. The closure is in response to the limited size of the site, boundary issues, neighbor concerns, and environmental issues. The area beyond the spring is now managed as a revegetation area. The blue-blazed side trail to the spring will remain open and maintained.

8/14/09 - A new moldering, composting privy has been constructed at the Rte 41 hiker parking lot.
