Trail flooded
I’m so used to signs on Coal Creek Trail saying, “Trail Closed,” that I usually just ignore them because the trail is just fine and not the least bit “closed.”
But today, the trail really was closed due to flooding in the underpass where the trail & Coal Creek go under Hwy. 42.
I’m glad I was walking rather than riding my bike.
The picture on the right isn’t very good (taken on my iPhone) but it shows that the water level in the creek and on the trail are about the same.
