Have you noticed something different about the El Nogal section of the South Boundary trail? 🤔As of last week, ECTA and the U.S. Forest Service - Carson National Forest officially completed the 330-foot South Boundary reroute. Changes you may have noticed:🌼 The bridge has been reoriented to align with the new reroute🌼 Signage has been moved to align with the new reroute🌼 The old South Boundary trail alignment has been naturalized and rehabbed to prevent further erosionWhy did we reroute the trail you may ask? 🌼 The old trail alignment was too steep and was causing erosion🌼 The old alignment flooded in the spring because it was constructed in the floodplain (don't hike muddy trails!)🌼 To improve water quality in the Rio Fernando Watershed🌼 To improve user experience with a properly designed trailPlease respect the closure of the old trail alignment and use the new reroute! The new reroute will provide YOU with a better recreational experience and will allow wildlife and our watersheds to thrive#trailsconnectuse#enchantedcircletrailsr#enchantedcirclei#nmoutdoorsd#nmoutsidet#nmtruem#trailsr#trailmaintenancen#nmtrailsr#taos##NewMexicoe#trailbuildingl#getoutdoorsdoors ...
