Portions of the popular Sadie Creek ORV trail system on state trust land in Clallam County are open again. DNR closed trails in area because of damage caused in last month’s wind storm. We’ve cleared the fallen trees and limbs blocking trail access but don’t forget that another portion of Sadie Creek that we closed before the storm due to timber sale activity remains off-limits. The wind storm damage also delayed the timber harvest-related work so reopening those sections has been pushed back.
Also, the 4×4 trail system to the north of Highway 112 (across from the Sadie Creek Trailhead) will be closed indefinitely due to storm damage. Wayne Fitzwater from DNR’s Olympic Region says he’ll be working with 4×4 user groups after the first of the year to assess the condition of the trails. Then we’ll know better when they can be reopened.
