​The season's first events. Come one, come all!
  • May 7th @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am: Virtual Trails Training with Will Krift of Trails Anonymous: here is the meeting link. We will record the session and post it on this website for those who can't make the training.
  • May 14th @ 9:00 am - Noon: Restoration projects in the Big Ravine. We will gather at the Gil Larsen Trailhead (parking area on Washington Ave. across from the City library) to plant native shrubs and pull invasive forget-me-nots. Please bring work gloves, spades/shovels, clippers, buckets for watering plants, and any other tool you think would be useful.

With the first day of spring just one week away, we are excited about the upcoming trails project season. The Bayfield Area Trails 2022 project calendar is now posted here. Check out our 2022 Project Calendar. We hope you will make note of the projects that interest you. 
 
As you'll see, several of these projects will be under the leadership of the newly-formed Bayfield Area Trails (BATs) Trails Subcommittee; and we want to say a special thanks to the 10 folks who have stepped up to be a part of this subcommittee! This is an important big step toward building long-term sustainability of the Bayfield Area Trails organization.
As we approach the project dates, you can expect that we will follow our standard process for recruiting and scheduling volunteers for the multi-day projects including the Big Ravine, West Rim, and Jerry Jolly Trails. We will send out recruitment notices two weeks prior to the project so that volunteers can sign up for time slots. Then, the crew schedule will be sent to volunteers one week before the project start date along with project logistics, tools, safety notes, and other relevant information.

Upcoming Trail Closures

Mud (and ice) season is coming our way: To avoid resource damage and potential safety risks, please anticipate trail closures on the Big Ravine's Pine Bluff and Hemlock Heights trails. When the closures are implemented, signs will be posted at key intersections and trail alerts added to the website and Facebook page.
 
We all love these trails, so please stay off trails during closures. 
 
As always, suggestions and ideas are welcome. You can send them via the comment form found at the bottom of all pages on this site.
​
We look forward to seeing you out on the trails!
