Comments
Comments: I would advise *not* using this trail right now.
Construction has made a mess out of it the access road portion of the hiking trail below the top of the chairlift. Interestingly, explosives are being used on the hiking trail, outside of the official project area. Large granite blocks and blasting wires remain. In addition, heavy equipment has dug up the historic Taft Trail above the top of the chairlift, leaving deep muddy ruts.
The operators at Loon, Waterville, Wildcat, etc. would never get away with the continued shenanigans the state is pulling at Mittersill.
