Winter

Respect & Responsibility Code

Tips to make winter travel safer and more enjoyable.

Safety

Be prepared for changing weather conditions
Check the local forecast and bring the basics: warm clothing, sunscreen, first aid kit, and extra food and water
Let someone know where you are going. Don’t rely on a cell phone for help. You may not get reception where you are traveling.

Respect

Share the trail! Treat other users with courtesy and respect.
Respect wildlife. Obey all winter closure areas. Be patient and never scare or chase wildlife off the trail.
Don’t walk, ride, or snowmobile in the classic (set) ski track.
Be aware of other trail users. Pass safely.
Don’t tune out completely. (Watch the volume!)

Pets

Have your dog under control by voice command or with a leash.
Respect leash laws in the Game Creek and Cache Creek areas.
Clean up after your dog. Use the muttmitt stations where provided.
Report dog related conflicts to Animal Control at 733-2331.

The trails in the Cache-Game area are almost totally snow free with just a few drifts lingering on the north side of the Cache-Game divide and the Ferrin’s saddle. The 5 way meadows in upper Wilson Canyon are also pretty wet with spring runoff. There are still some trees down in the burn area on the Wilson Canyon and West Game trails that we will get cleared next week. The trails are holding up well but need a little longer to dry out after it rains as the ground is still saturated from the snow melt. I usually say wait until the streets in town are dry but maybe add an hour to that until we get into a high pressure system. The crews also finished clearing Munger Mountain this week and will start pushing up from the base of Teton Pass next week. If you are out exploring this weekend and see any trees down send us a trail maintenance request and we will get them asap. If you are going to be around next weekend come out from 9-12 on Saturday June 3rd for National Trails Day. We will be building singletrack across Snow King to get the Sink or Swim trail off of the shared section of road. Meet at the base of the Rafferty lift for bagels and coffee and a free ride up to help us dig.

More trails are opening up with the warmer temps. Sink or Swim is clear from Josies to Ferrins with just the lingering snow in the ski area to cross. The Sidewalk to Wiggle to Putt Putt loop is popular as always and the first part of Hagen and lower Ferrins is dry as well. Crystal Butte and Woods Canyon are snow free up to around 7600 feet and the Canyons south of town are similar. The lower Munger trails are also almost good to go with a few lingering snow patches on Wally World, but the Big Munger Loop is still holding a lot of snow. All in all a good week of clearing and trail work with the FOP crew, the BTNF crew, and a great volunteer group of 70 6th graders from the Salt Lake area helping us to clean up the Cache Creek area. Have a great weekend out on the trails!

Nothing better than scoring a new bike - even if it’s used! Thanks to The Hub Bicycles for putting together another successful community bike swap. Buying and selling bikes at this swap directly benefits Friends of Pathways while helping so many access our 70+ miles of pathways and 150+ miles of local trails. We were there putting free bells and free lights on any bike that needed them. Thanks to all who came out! Enjoy your new wheels!

After 5 months of grooming in Cache we're going to call it for the season. The warm temps this next week will make it difficult to continue. Thanks for all of the support and we hope you had fun out on the trails this winter!

Spring grooming is tricky! We pay close attention to the temps and will continue to groom the 12 miles of Cache Creek single track on an as-needed basis any night it is below freezing until at least April 6. Parks and Rec will groom the cat track until April 3. Enjoy!
