Hello Trail Friends!
We’ve had a lot of questions lately about the water level of the lake and closures so I thought it would be a good time to post some extra info.
The trail is CLOSED any time the lake reaches 217 feet according to the Lake Level website. That means it’s closed at 217, 217.01, 217.99…you get the idea. We realize this is frustrating, believe me, we want to be out there too! This level was set as part of an agreement with WRC and as hard as we’ve worked to get this trail, we are not going to risk losing the privilege of using it because we did not honor that agreement.
Parts of the trail are under water at 217 feet, which makes it dangerous for not only you and your horses, but for emergency services should they need to reach you for any reason.
We know all the storms this summer have made that level tap dance all around 217 for weeks now and it’s super frustrating not to be able to ride.
But, the closure level of 217 feet is set there for a reason, and we hope that all users continue to follow the rules so we can all enjoy the trail indefinitely 🐎
Thanks, y’all!
