East-Boulder White Rocks Trail section closed
The bridge on the East Boulder-White Rocks Trail is closed after flooding conditions on the path caused the bridge to become disconnected from its embankment. OSMP advises visitors not to approach the bridge. The East-Boulder White Rocks Trail remains open up to the bridge closure from both directions, but no through trail travel is allowed - see the closure map.
Rock Island 1 in Boulder Canyon closed
Rock Island 1 is closed. The rock fractured and part fell onto the Boulder Canyon Creek path. Sections of the remaining rock have been evaluated as unstable so it is closed until recommended bolting can be completed.
