Pacific Crest Trail Closures 1.0.1

The Pacific Crest Trail is subject to natural hazards such as wildfires, landslides, and collapsed bridges, making up-to-date trail information crucial for safety and planning. The Pacific Crest Trail Association dedicates significant effort to providing current and reliable updates on trail conditions.

An effective tool for gaining confidence in your planning is the PCTA app, designed to deliver essential trail closure information directly to users. The app consolidates official updates from the PCTA, enabling hikers to stay informed and make well-informed decisions regarding their trip.
