Cattle Grazing Land

The trail corridor is active ranch land with cattle, fencing, and grazing infrastructure — not pristine wilderness.

Photos taken May 2026 at the proposed trail corridor. The flow trail would add a 4-foot-wide dirt path alongside this existing infrastructure — paved roads, fire roads, cattle fencing, and active grazing land that has been in continuous agricultural use since the 1800s.
