The project would reroute about 1,000 feet of trail to ensure visitor safety and address resource concerns. The 2012 Pole Creek fire created a boggy section of trail which is unsafe for visitor travel.
Location
T16S; R09E; sections 2, 3, 10, and 11. The project is near Forest Road 1514 and the Metolious Windigo trail junction.
