Seasonal Closures
Seasonal closures are now in effect through April 15 on several Methodist Mountain trails, and through March 15 on Beasway, to protect important habitat that wildlife need to survive the winter. Pregnant deer and elk are particularly sensitive to disturbances, and stand a better chance of survival when the habitat is free of interactions with humans and pets.
