I spoke with Fletcher Jacobs, State Trail Programs Manager for Colorado Parks and Wildlife, about the most commonly broken rules on Colorado’s trails and why hikers need to respect the guidelines and the environment. “As land management agencies, we create these trails to manage where folks go,” he said. Read what Jacobs said about how trails are made, why you need to pack out what you pack in and more in this Denver Post article. And mind your p’s and q’s on the trails!
