The Wild Turkey and Picture Rock trails have been temporarily closed at Heil Valley Ranch due to concerns for damage to the trail surface and surrounding vegetation.
Wapiti, Ponderosa Loop and Lichen Loop trails will remain open.
Current trail conditions trails in the lower elevation front range are generally poor due to the recent moisture, warm temperatures and freeze/thaw conditions. Moreover, the slope orientation and soil type exacerbate the problem even more for these two trails. Finally, with the weather forecasting continuing mild temperatures over the weekend, staff has initiated this temporary closure. Signs are being posted today.
Spread the word...
Wild Turkey and Picture Rock Trails will re-open when staff make the on-site determination that conditions have improved, and are stable.
Please feel free to contact Michael Bauer at 303-818-0615 with any questions.
Again, thanks so much for your help in spreading the word.
