    Rat Pack conditions

    Hey Scott - I was there a couple of weeks ago and things were in great shape. It was fairly dry and the weather was pleasant (though a tad on the cold side durring the morning hours - layer up!). Not sure how it's all doing now after the rainfall we've had for the past few days. I hope...

    Tiger?

    TIGER UPDATE The bridge material was flown in yesterday and is now in place. Unfortunately, we were unaware of the timing but I just got off the phone with the DNR and the closure was a temporary measure while the chopper was overhead delivering the material. Apparently one individual ignored...

    Temporary Tiger Mountain Trail Closures

    Joel - The NW Timber Trail is I'd say, beginner to intermediate... it's all relative though. Although it's not ideal that they close NW Timber in the middle of the summer, those new bridges will be great and it's wonderful that the DNR was able to get the NOVA grant to replace them. This...
