Camel's Back Trail Improvements

The Ridge to Rivers team is working to improve the trail tread along a section of trail located adjacent to the main Camel’s Back chute. This section of Camel’s Back trail is very rocky and steep, leading hikers to widen the trail as they try to find the easiest route.

Beginning in February 2026 and weather permitting, crews plan to add approximately 38 wooden steps to improve the quality of the trail, as well as replace the adjacent rope fence with post and rail fencing. Upon completion the fenced area will be planted with seed and seedlings. This work is expected to take approximately 18 days to complete once it begins.

The section of trail will be temporarily closed while our team works in the area.

Please give workers space, patience and understanding as they work to efficiently complete these trail improvements.
