The rains last winter severely damaged the Mt. Wilson Trail that required the installation of a 30-foot wooden bridge due to a complete trail washout. The planned goal this year is to build the trail where the washout occured and remove the bridge. There was other significant trail damage and a lot of repair work is still to be done. While all work is done by the Volunteer Trail Maintenance Crew, the supplies must be paid for with community tax-deductible donations to the Fletcher Trail Maintenance Fund. Neither the City of Sierra Madre nor the US Forest Service provides any funds for supplies or labor. Please check out the Donation section on the website to learn how you too can support the work of the trail volunteers to keep the trails safe for public use and ready for Mt. Wilson Trail Race 2024.
