Due to the dynamic nature of our trails, there may be changes in trail conditions and accessibility not in our trail guide, nor even in the "Trails" section of this website. Please check here for the latest updates on our trails.

Saco Heath looking a little rough
Harry Johnson, our lookout person for the Saco Heath, reports the trail and boardwalk are looking pretty rough, with muddy areas and many rotten boards. While the trail is still passable, he recommends caution for those who traverse it.

Cascade Falls
The trail isn't open yet, but we're making great strides. We now have a parking lot built and a network of future trails flagged in the area. We're actively seeking grants for trail construction which we hope to begin in 2010. In the meantime, we're working to keep vandalism and litter at bay in the area. We'll be setting up a page on this site to track progress.

Sylvan Trail looking great
During a work party in September, we built two new bridges, repaired a third, mowed and cut back brush to make the trail much more passable. Now there is a clear path from the Flag Pond road kiosk to the field and back.    Read more...
