This proposed relocation of the Gale River Trail would eliminate two trail crossings of the Gale River which are difficult during moderate or high water conditions. A bridge at one crossing location washed out in 2005 and has not been replaced.
Location
The proposed relocation would begin approximately 2 1/2 miles up the Gale River Trail from the trailhead on the Gale River Loop Road.
