Trail Update 6-20-19

Shimek Equestrian Trails status change!!!

  DIRT TRAILS are CLOSED.

Wet Weather Trails are OPEN.

Rainfall over the weekend created problems on the dirt trails. We appreciate your respecting this request to stay off the dirt trails for now. Forester Byrd will reopen them as soon as the weather permits. The new section of trail to help riders avoid the Highway right of way is not yet open. The soil on that section must firm up so that rock can be applied to it. Please do not ride it at this time.
FYI: Before going to ride, check trail status:
