USFS Closes Sections of Catch & Release and Grand Slam Trails for Logging

1/4/2018

 
US Forest Service logging operations are shifting to different areas, to include sections of:
​
• Catch & Release trail, roughly between the new Cascade Lakes Welcome Center and Storm King. Trail temporarily rerouted onto FS Rd 41/Conklin. 
and

• Grand Slam trail, near Upper Storm King and the new Ticket to Ride trail tie-in.

Please note for your safety and the safety of others, these areas are closed until further notice. Loggers have access 7 days a week.

Just wanted to mention that I was trail running on Catch and Release last weekend and noticed that logging operations had run over sections of the trail 5-6 times and did significant damage to one 20 yard section. That section was damaged with machine tracks and tree debris so severely that I briefly lost the trail and had to backtrack to regain it.

Not sure if this is common or a big deal, but I thought I would mention it just in case.

Yo Brian -

That's why that section of trail is closed. Do you know what "closed" means? It means that you're not supposed to be there.

Please pay attention to these posts and heed signs that are put up by COTA and the Forest Service.
