District Ranger, Dayle Funka, has decided to approve construction of a total of 9.45 miles of single-track trail, decommission 1.0 miles of single-track trail, and approve approximately 18.7 acres of disturbance for expansion of existing parking areas and enhancement of the infrastructure at the Brush Creek Trailhead, Tent City Day Use and Designated Camping Area, and Walrod Trailhead. Specific trail alignment sections can be found in the draft DN.
The project was developed in response to Crested Butte Mountain Bike Association’s (CBMBA) Short-Term Trail Plan: Riders off the Road proposal. The objective is to provide better and more diverse user opportunities by facilitating safe, responsible, and sustainable recreation infrastructure improvements to the current trail system.
