Trail Report

With mud season coming to a close, ACT will be re-opening its trails to the public for the summer season. Be prepared to encounter washouts with loose rock, muddy sections of trail, and ticks this time of year. Feel free to reach out to our Trails Manager, Conor ([email protected]), if you are interested in helping maintain our trails this summer, as he will be scheduling volunteer trail workdays soon!

Trail Reporting

ACT’s trails rely on a team of dedicated, hard-working volunteers and maintainers to continue providing recreational opportunities and access to the outdoors in the North Country year-round. The link below allows the general public, as well as our volunteers to keep the ACT team up-to-date on current trail conditions. If you are out and about on one of our trails and notice something that doesn’t look quite right, (tree down, washout, mud hole, overgrown vegetation, etc.) please go ahead and let us know on the “HAZARDS” page. Conor, our Trails Manager, will address the hazard and organize an opportunity to fix these problems with volunteers who wish to join.

Thank you for your continued support and excitement for outdoor recreation. See you on the trails!
