The Durango Trails crew has been hard at work all

The Durango Trails crew has been hard at work all season addressing maintenance and construction needs including tread, drainage, erosion, and downed trees on our area trail network. Here are a few images of work on the re-route on Perins Gulch in Overend Mountain Park and new tread being installed on Animas Mountain. Star Wars trailwork kicks off on Monday.

The @USDA Forest Service - San Juan National Fores

The @USDA Forest Service - San Juan National Forest has rescinded Stage1 firest restrictions. Do you know how to properly extinguish a campfire🔥? 90% of all forest fires are human-caused.

➡️First, drown the campfire with water!
➡️Next, mix the ashes and embers with soil.
➡️Stir the embers after they are covered with water and make sure that everything is wet.
➡️Feel the coals, embers, and any partially-burned wood with your hands. Everything (including the rock fire ring) should be cool to the touch. Feel under the rocks to make sure there are no embers underneath.
➡️When you think you are done, take an extra minute and add more water.
➡️Finally, check the entire campsite for possible sparks or embers, because it only takes one to start a forest fire.
Remember…if it is too hot to touch, it is too hot to leave.

The City of Durango - City Government has retained

The City of Durango - City Government has retained its spot as one of the top Bicycle Friendly Community cities in the nation. The recognition is bestowed by the League of American Bicyclists, an education and advocacy organization founded in 1880.
::
Durango Trails (Trails 2000) is proud to be a part of the organizations that first developed this ranking for the City and also helped launch the first Bike to Work Day events.
::
There are 487 communities ranked in the nation. Durango is among only 34 with a Gold designation in 2021. Four other Colorado communities have Gold rankings, and two – Boulder and Fort Collins – have the Platinum designation.
::
“Durango’s renewed designation demonstrates the community’s continued dedication to being a great place to live and commute without a car,” said Devin King, multimodal administrator. “We will continue to progress toward being a Platinum Bicycle Friendly Community.”
::
We hope the City continues to strive to create safe riding opportunities for all.

Durango has more national, world champions, and Olympians per capita than any town in the US. The culture of Durango created by coaches, family, and even the trail infrastructure are essential as @christopherblevs points out in this great article by @jlivi2.(Link in Bio).

The Columbine Ranger District of the USDA Forest S

The Columbine Ranger District of the USDA Forest Service - San Juan National Forest and the Conservation Crew are working on southernmost 5.5 miles of the Hermosa Creek Trail as a result of work needed after the #416 fire. The trail is OPEN but crews and equipment are on site. If possible, choosing another route helps the crews out. The majority of the work is at the lower Hermosa trailhead, Hermosa Campground, and the Dutch Creek crossing.
::
All trails will be signed where work is being performed, where travel is not allowed during work and reroutes identified if needed.
::
The Forest asks all recreationists to pay attention and follow trails signs. If possible, recreationists are asked to select another trail to recreate in the area. Machinery such as chainsaws and mini-excavators will be used to complete trail work and remove fire-weakened trees. Avoiding these areas ensures the safety of the trail crews and forest visitors.
