The City of Steamboat Springs Parks & Community Services Department will be closing sections of the Yampa River Core Trail and other local trails as high water rises this spring.
Each spring, as snow melts and the rivers and creeks run higher, various sections of the trail are closed as water exceeds the banks. As flows increase and decrease, there will be closures and re-routes on the trail system.
To date, the following sections of trail are closed:
• Highway 40 Underpass at Walton Creek
• Railroad Underpass between Fetcher Park and Rotary Park
These sections and others may open/close as we reach peak flows. Please obey all closures and do not try to cross trails with water on them.
