This project aims to reroute a 0.05 mi section of the Yellowstone Trail (057) that is currently being undercut by Yellowstone Creek. The reroute will place the trail up slope of the current trail in a talus field protected from further undercutting.
Location
This project will reroute a section of the Yellowstone Trail (057) approximately 4 miles from the Swift Creek Trailhead traveling up-drainage. The Swift Creek Trailhead is located ~40mi N of Duchesne.
