Good Ideas for the Trail

  1. Trail rules are posted at trailheads
  2. Stop at all road crossings
    • Even if there's a red light, check to make sure it's safe to cross
  3. Use the Buddy System - don't travel alone on the trail
  4. Bring self-protection - a good idea anywhere you go
    • Though rare, there's been crime on the trail More...
    • Some areas of the trail are very remote
    • When asking 35 random people on the trail if they were armed, the majority said yes
  5. Pedestrians have the right-of-way over bicycles and roller-bladers
    • To avoid injury please slow down: pass with care and courtesy - it's greatly appreciated
  6. Please keep an eye on small kids so they don't accidentally wander in front of trail users - thanks :)
