The Angler Access Trail beyond the Red Dam gate upstream from the Les Voigt State Fish Hatchery is temporarily closed. This Trail provides access to the new bridge across Pikes Creek and the Pileated Woodpecker Trail. A recently completed official survey by Bayfield County found that a portion of the Angler Access Trail is under private ownership, not under the ownership of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR). As a result, there is currently no legal public access between the Red Dam gate and the new bridge.
Anyone traveling on private property without permission would be considered in trespass. PLEASE do not remove signs, survey stakes, or flagging. As discussions move forward we will post new information on the website and Facebook page as it becomes available.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Bayfield dog Holly recently visited the Big Ravine and took note of the sign—especially the images pertaining to dogs. “My human brought my leash!” Holly says. “Remember to bring yours!”
As the spring and summer hiking seasons approach, Bayfield Area Trails (BAT) reminds trail-users that we strive to provide a safe and high-quality experience for everyone. To that end, hikers with dogs are asked to behave responsibly, keeping dogs under control at all times, and properly disposing of their waste. |
