Shimek State Forest's Lick Creek Unit - All trails are open
Added note from riders today 6-3-22: Dirt trails still very muddy and slick. Bad water crossings. Most left them and returned to Wet Weather Trail- they did not feel the trails were safe for their horses right now.
Good news for trail riders at Shimek State Forest's Lick Creek Unit: All Trails are open as of 6/3/22. Please be aware that there are still a few soft places on the dirt trails. There could be some downed trees on the dirt trails as the crew has not had time since it has dried some to check nor remove them.
Ticks are very thick. There is some itch weed present in some of the lower areas near the creeks. Please check yourself and your animals thoroughly when you are done riding or hiking.
Trail status can be checked anytime at the DNR Trails CLOSURE site. When not listed, trails are open.
