Funding Source Update
A 4-year $200,000 funding source is coming from the Inflation Reduction Act focusing on climate change resiliency projects. The habitat restoration work applies to the northern 400 acres of the Van Loon Wildlife Refuge, of which the MicGilvray Seven Bridges trail is only a small part of. There will be no changes to the bridges or the trail.

Turkey Season 2024
Turkey season would be the next hunting season for folks to be aware of. That season kicks off on April 13th and runs through May 28th. Not likely to be a ton of interaction between hikers on McGilvray Road and turkeys hunters but still good for awareness.
