R2R Trail Conditions Update
- The section of trail between the McCann Springs parking lot and the Big Muddy Levee near the Snake road parking lot at Winters pond is closed because that section of road is underwater due to flooding of the Big Muddy River. It is unknown how deep this and whether it can be safely navigated. Any current hikers out there need to take note and make appropriate plans to get around this area.
- The section of trail east of Bassett road may experience periods of congestion over the next several months because the FS has issued a contract to harvest trees. As a result, there will be timber crews in the area doing just that and also may be working on the trail to improve it for equipment access.
It was flooded on Fri., Mar. 22 and Sat., Mar. 23. On 3/23, hikers were able to walk up on the slope east of the water to get to LaRue Rd and Big Muddy Levee Rd. I have not seen it since 3/23.
