The City of Steamboat Springs Parks & Community Services Department will continue to close sections of the Yampa River Core Trail and other local trails as high water rises this spring.
Due to the spring runoff and excessive rainfall, rivers and creeks continue to run high and various sections of the trail are closed as water exceeds the banks and floods the trails. 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
• Rail Road Underpass between Fetcher Park and Rotary Park
• 13th Street Underpass at the Bud Werner Memorial Library
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.
