Trail Updates

Last Update:1.5.20
See our Trails Page for trail description and map.

-SVC land/trail access updates:  E-News subscribers get updates.

Refer to this News/Blog post for current trail and parking access updates.

-Pump Track = only open on dry days. See Pump Track page.

-Trails Conditions:  Avoid when wet or thawing. Using them during this fragile time damages trails and makes more work for our volunteers. See Freeze/Thaw info.

-BLOWDOWNS- Report with approximate trail location (or Trailforks screenshot), photo, rough diameter of tree, and something in photo for scale to BATSVT@Gmail.com

-TRAIL WORK Days: Posted when possible on our GroupMe Text App, E-News or Facebook.
