Trail conditions rarely change drastically from year to year. That said, the usability and accessibility of trails (and access roads to more remote trails) can change, especially after major weather events or during road construction work. Heavy rains can wash out sections of trail, and strong winds can blow large trees across trails. The same can happen to access roads, especially dirt roads. That’s why it’s always a good idea to check with the managing agency before heading out, particularly for the more remote trails like those in the foothills east of Sacramento.

Volunteer organizations play a big role in maintaining trails throughout the country, including in the Sacramento area. Consider joining one or more of these organizations and helping out on trail-maintenance days. See Trail and Conservation Organizations in the Resources section at the back of the book.
