South Fork Merced River Trail Restoration Project


This multi-faceted project will: (1) restore 20 miles of highly-valued non-motorized recreational trails; (2) install wayfinding signs, directional signs, place-name signs, mileage signs and cultural interpretation signs; and, (3) creates an online and paper trail-user map with locally relevant themes about trail safety and fire.
