The closure goes into effect today, and is expected to last for a couple of weeks. The closure will be in place for public safety as maintenance work will include the use of heavy machinery.
The Phil’s skills area receives high-volume use causing features to degrade over time. The maintenance work will include reconfiguring elements to increase sustainability and provide enhanced opportunities for riders of all ages and abilities.ce
Central Oregon Trails Alliance (COTA) will manage the project through a volunteer service agreement with the Forest Service.
