The color codes refer to maintenance status only and do not reflect the difficulty of the terrain.

Disclaimer: The “Last Condition Report” color code is date & opinion of the person reporting. Carefully consider these factors and the elapsed time period (eg. growing seasons that have passed) since the last Work Report date. FoOT cannot guarantee the condition of the trail at the time you experience it due to ever-changing factors in the forest. This is a challenging wilderness-type trail with mountains, rocks, creeks, rivers, uneven tread and various obstacles.
