Phil's Trailhead Project

Expand and improve the existing parking area by paving and creating up to 96 parking spaces for single and large vehicles while providing universal access. Replace the existing toilet with a double CXT restroom and provide an access route to the facilities. Install an information kiosk with trail and interpretive information. Reconstruct access road 4604 by reducing width, resurface with asphalt and improve ditches. Provide gathering areas with picnic tables, benches, or large rocks.
