Due to an avalanche in 2019 and a landslide in 2022, trail realignment and/or reconstruction are necessary to locate the trail in a sustainable location away from a waterway. Rerouting or reconstruction of up to 3/4 of a mile trail are proposed.
Location
Along the Missouri Gulch trail #1469 within Collegiate Peaks Wilderness, near milepost 1 at approximately 10,800-feet and milepost 2, at about 11,800 feet
