Cooper Gulch Trails Near Completion



Green Wheels, the Trails Trust, and the City of Eureka partnered to improve trails through Cooper Gulch and, by doing so, connect neighborhoods bordering the park. In July, volunteers for several organizations successfully completed the first stretch of trail through the east side of the park to the 13th Street neighborhood.

In conjunction with United Way’s Day of Caring, in September, a second volunteer trail day improved another trail segment to P Street. A BIG “Thank You” to all the volunteers, businesses, and users who participated and donated!

These trail segments serve as a valuable connection for neighborhoods and commuters. The project was also a pilot community project model that can be replicated in other neighborhoods in Eureka. Is there an informal connector trail in your neighborhood that needs improvement? If so, contact the Trails Trust at info@trailstrust.org and we will connect you with city staff and a trail project book to help you with Step 1.

In closing, this project was spearheaded by Kevin Wright with Green Wheels. His enthusiasm and persistence was crucial to making this idea a reality. Thank you, Kevin, for the many, many hours and positive energy put into the projects!
