Marked in GREEN on the map is the climb access route, and while the lowest section of the climbing trail remains closed the access to the back of the network is via the Three Pitches Road, joining the middle of the Lower Climbing Trail, then continuing along the Bear Buns Climb to Bucket Access, crossing the reservoir bridge, and around the back on the Old Bucket access road.
The following trails remain closed:
The lowest section of the Climbing Trail
Broadway
Off-Broadway
Upper Climbing Trail beyond Sykes Bridge
Sykes Bridge
Short Guts
Lower Thirsty Beaver
Bear Buns
Bucket of Blood
Hai Gai
Broncos Perseverance
The Pig
Please respect all closure signage and avoid these trails while the migration is underway.
The 2nd migration around Teapot is complete and the following trails have now reopened:
42nd Street
Teapot
Slick Rock
Steam Donkey
That Dam Trail
Short and Curly
The entire Vanilla side of the network is now open, as the 3rd migration in that area is complete.
We`re still seeing some toad activity on Ginger Snaps and along the Davis Lake Main near the reservoir. Davis Lake Main remains open, but please ride slowly and be prepared to dismount if you encounter clusters of toads. This route also provides access to Upcake and the gravity trails from the reservoir side.
These trail closures will remain in effect for the duration of the long weekend. Information boards are in place at the main trailheads, with clear directional signage throughout the network to help you plan your ride.
Thank you for respecting the closures, slowing down where required, and helping protect our largest Western Toad migration ever on record. Your cooperation has made a tremendous difference. 🐸
