CURRENT PROJECTS
QUIGLEY-HANGMAN CONNECTOR
THIS TRAIL IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
The Quigley-Hangman Connector is designed to make the unofficial “social” trail an official route that connects the new Hang Tight/Loose Trails to the Quigley Loop Trail. Hikers, trail runners, mountain bikers and adaptive mountain bikers will be able to access the Hangman drainage from the Quigley side and vice-versa.
This connector trail will be about 1 mile long, and will feature 521’ of elevation gain, great for beginner to intermediate hikers, mountain bikers, trail runners and adaptive mountain bikers. Additionally, this trail will be built and maintained to a 48” tread width allowing adaptive mountain bikers , community members with mobility limitations, beginners, and families to experience the same joy and challenge the rest of our Valley’s trail system offers. This wider tread width accommodates adaptive mountain bikes up to 36” wide, strollers and anyone needing a bit more breathing room than the typical 18 - 24” singletrack trail provides.
The Fox Creek Bridge Replacement Project
The Fox Creek Trail is one of the most loved rides and hikes in the Wood River Valley—but the creek crossing has become a weak link. Repeated flooding has damaged the existing bridge and turned the crossing into an unstable mix of logs, water, and guesswork.
We’re replacing the current crossing with a 70-foot engineered steel trail bridge designed to span the entire floodplain.
Projects like this only happen because of community support.
From trail users to local businesses to partner organizations, the Fox Creek Bridge project reflects a shared commitment to maintaining safe, sustainable trails on our public lands. Together, we’re creating, maintaining, and sustaining our trail network for all users.
South Valley Trails
We are the main partner with the Bureau of Land Management - Shoshone Field Office (BLM) for building and maintaining the approximately 81 miles of new trail to be constructed near Hailey and Bellevue. These trails are made possible by a Decision Record for the Wood River Valley Recreation and Access Environmental Assessment declared on March 1st, 2021. Read more about this development here.
This partnership includes new trail construction, trail maintenance, trail monitoring and volunteer work parties. We plan to build 30 - 40 miles of new trail between 2025 - 2028. Read more about the Wood River Trail Infrastructure Agreement here.
The Greenhorn Improvements Project
We are so excited to present to the community the Greenhorn Improvements Project. In collaboration with the U.S. Forest Service - Sawtooth National Forest - Ketchum Ranger District, we are bringing some much needed restoration and trail realignment to the Greenhorn trail system.
