Brushing out along Hay Creek Trail #3, July 9, 2022 – W. K. Walker
We’ve started work in the Hay Creek Drainage, beginning with a short stretch of the Whitefish Divide Trail and the piece of the Hay Creek Trail west of the bridge at the foot of Hay Lake. We started at the west end because this is where most of the blow-downs hide out (we removed eight of them), posing considerable inconvenience to folks hiking this segment of the Pacific Northwest Trail.
This was posted yesterday afternoon, July 5th, by the Forest Service…
For the safety of our visitors, the Tuchuck Campground is temporarily closed due to bear activity. We will post updates when they are available or you can call the Ranger Station at (406) 387-3800.
