The Bridger-Teton National Forest has proposed a suite of projects for its trail crews to tackle during the summer of 2021, including reroutes, some heavy maintenance and one all-new system route.
That lone new trail is a short one thatâs slated for the Granite Falls area north of the Hoback Canyon. Currently the way from the road to the broad, stunning waterfall is braided with steep âsocial trailsâ that are potentially dangerous, according to a scoping notice that the forest issued.
âCrews will construct a new sustainable trail that is accessed directly from the parking lot over to the base of the waterfall,â the notice says, âand close and rehabilitate all the existing social trails.â
