Information on Cleared Winter Hiking Trails
We would like to point out that local snow removal services prioritize ensuring public safety. Depending on weather and snow conditions, this means that public roads take precedence over winter hiking trails and are cleared first. As a result, there may be delays in clearing the winter hiking trails. However, the city is committed to clearing the winter hiking trails for you.
Thank you for your understanding, and enjoy your winter hiking adventures!
