Trail Closures
North Umpqua Trail
Tree fallers will be working on the NUT over the next several weeks to clear trees for the installation of new bridges. This work will help improve trail access, but for your safety, we ask all recreators to avoid the area while tree mitigation is underway. Signs will be posted, and staff will be monitoring both sides of the felling area. Wood is staying on the landscape as coarse woody debris for wildlife or felled into streams for fish habitat. Map below.
The tentative work schedule:
- September 25th and 26th: Panther Segment – Panther Bridge at milepost 3.8
- October 2nd and 3rd: Panther Segment – Panther Bridges at mileposts 2.6 and 2.7Watson Falls Trail #1496
Watson Falls lower trail is closed due to a damaged bridge. To take the upper trail to Watson Falls, walk to the right up National Forest Service Road 37 from the trailhead, the trail will be located on the left side of the road.
