Won’t trail users conflict with timber management activities?
A. Obviously there are some activities that are not consistent with the immediate presence of trail users. During our explorations we have been in the proximity of timber felling, yarding of downed logs, log hauling, spraying, and slash burning. These activities are limited to rather narrow windows of time so that temporary closure, or detour, of the route is feasible. We will coordinate with timber companies to close trail segments during these periods, provide them with closure signs as needed, and post the closure notices on our website (perhaps also providing means for the timber companies to post closure information directly to our website).
