Re: Trail Construction Closure Extended at North Table Mountain Park
Thought to be completed by September, safety and technical components of the remaining portion of North Table Loop Trail and its connection to Cottonwood Canyon Trail will require an extended construction period to complete the trail. The construction closure will remain in effect through the end of the year (December 31, 2012). Please observe the closure even when crews are not working due to potential rock fall or hazards.
Two completed trail sections are now open to trail users. The Lithic Trail, a connector to the Fairmount Trail, and the northbound segment of North Table Loop provide access from the on the east side of the mesa to the completed trails on the Park.
Open Space could use your help. North Table Mountain Park neighbors and Park visitors are invited register for the two remaining Volunteer Trail Days on September 15 and October 13 at jeffco.us/openspace under the Volunteer heading.
