Due to a surge in postive Covid-19 cases in Elko County and the State of Nevada, we are being reverted back to phase 1 of Covid response and the Trail Center will be closed to the public until further notice. All programs will be cancelled for the time being. We apologize for any inconvenience.

The center is closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day.
