TRAIL CLOSURES


The portion of the Blue/Yellow Trail between Cannon Road and the Blue Trail is currently closed for safety purposes during a forest harvest which will remove standing dead hazard trees near the trail. Trees are being felled and logs moved with large machinery. It would be very dangerous to be in the area. Please use the Blue Trail as an alternate. The Blue Trail will remain open during the harvest and portions closed for only a few minutes at a time as trees are felled near it. Thank you.
For further information please contact
Forester Edward McGuire at Shenipsit State Forest Headquarters at 860-324-9475.

Due to considerable tree mortality (gypsy moth, drought, 2-lined chestnut borer, and other issues), the trail sections Red-White loop (closest to Pine Acres Pond) is closed.


WEEKDAY CLOSING
Due to reconstruction of the dam, the blue-yellow trail starting at the green gate by the pavilion to the yellow trail intersection where a second green gate is located will be closed every weekday from now until winter.

This section will be 
open on weekends.
