SoBo No Michi is closed Sykes Bridge area is teaming, Perseverance Creek is also extremely busy. The south side of Alan Lake is also covered with toads. We have closed all access via Davis lake main to Perseverance Creek, the Potholes, Sobo No Michi etc. All trails that come down the west side back to Perseverance area are closed. Please do not go into that zone for the next few days.
