Example of a Trail Update for a Route

Date: 4/25/2021

Current Status: Open with some issues

Additional Details: Recent rains have caused the river levels to rise substantially. Buffalo River is approximately 3' deep. Lifted vehicles with larger tires (33" +) may find it difficult and/or dangerous to cross Buffalo River. There's another crossing that's about 30" deep 1/2 mile north of the main crossing. We recommend checking water levels first, but this is typically the alternative crossing point. Aside from water levels, the rest of the trail is running fantastic!

Currently a large snowdrift just east of Dutchman Peak blocking passage. I expect it'll be clear in the next 5-10 days with snowmelt, best to call the Rogue River-Siskiyou NF ranger for status. Additionally, we ran into a gate along Elliot Creek-- a local said it was due to the snowdrift. Again, check with the ranger on the status of this road being opened up (should be any day). There's also a portion of Galice Road in the Rogue River Canyon that is closed due to a rock slide.

Route Update
We will be retiring the Siskiyou Sasquatch Trail and replacing it with the new and improved Siskiyou Sasquatch Adventure Trail in summer 2023. More dirt, more challenging trails, more rivers, more views!
