Subject: Wetzinkwa Community Forest Ski Trail harvesting updateRoad construction and timber harvesting in the area around the cross-country ski trail is progressing, triggering more hiking trail closures. The nature trail and goldeneye trail will be closed effective Thursday morning. We placed a trail closure notice sign at the Nature Trailhead, as well as on the trail from the Seymour Ridge Trail to the Nature Trail as well as on the goldeneye trail where it meets Conan’s Road. We also hung a ribbon gates across the trail at these locations. Update trail closure notice were placed on the mapboards at the Seymour Lake Trailhead, Seymour Ridge Trailhead, Nature Trailhead and the Dahlie Creek Trailhead. We will update these notices on these mapboards as work progresses and we will also let you know by email when they are open again. Thank you.
