I've heard that the trail into jackon from the staging area is closed off for repair and gravelling, does anyone know if this is for the rest of the season? I haven't seen much for signs or posts.
Sorry can’t help ya but the Blackett side is open. I would call the fish cops in lac, they could tell you.. Fishing was slower for us yesterday but the weather was perfect! So many guys staging at blackett there was probably 10 trucks parked on the road. Chatted with a few groups That said they won’t be back, way to much effort for what they caught. Lol. Good luck

Thanks Capper, I've heard some people went in the Dabbs trail from near Touchwood and took over an hour to get in on sled. If the fishing is slow might not be worth the drive in...
Our last trip in last summer, we noticed they had gone through and widened the trail, or at least cut back a lot of the scrub that was growing in.
That might be a prelude to getting larger equipment in to redo parts of the trail. I don't thing it was in bad shape, a couple holes and dips, and one hill that was getting washed out. Probably more for the boat launch approach.
I think they would be better off fixing the outhouses
We were there a couple weekends ago and yup.... they closed the trail so that they can stock pile gravel for repairs in October.... seems ridiculous to me to close it for the last couple weekends of fishing season but that's our wonderful government for you.
It should be opened back up for the summer season.
I just got of the phone with the park information line. Last year the trail was widened to allow access for dump trucks to distribute gravel down the trail now. They were also hoping to get the boat launch area widened. It is all supposed to be done before spring season opens.
No luck fixing the outhouses
