U.S. Forest Service
The Pike-San Isabel National Forests & Cimarron and Comanche National Grasslands (PSICC), Pikes Peak Ranger District has reopened the Seven Bridges Trail (Forest Service Trail #622, located in the Colorado Springs area) from the closed section of Gold Camp Road to the southeast corner of Jones Park.
To ensure public safety, a Pikes Peak Ranger District trail crew removed Bridge #1 after it was washed out last month, and a detour will remain in place for trail traffic. Follow detour signs from the start of Buckhorn Trail #776. The detour takes visitors back to Seven Bridges Trail at Bridge #2. Residents and visitors are encouraged to remain on the new path and recreate responsibly.
Forest visitors are encouraged to “Know Before You Go.” The weather can change suddenly and dramatically. Be prepared by monitoring the weather before setting out for the day. For more information, check out the agency’s flood safety tips, via our website. For additional questions or concerns, please contact the Pikes Peak Ranger District at 719-636-1602.
