Notes on Route Changes and Current Conditions

The map below shows all official Ice Age National Scenic Trail segments (blue lines; actual trail is marked with yellow blazes) and unofficial connecting routes (green lines; actual routes are unmarked). Notes (if any) on route changes and current conditions are indicated by “push pins” on the map; details for each push pin are shown below the map.

To zoom in, double-click or use the slider on the left side of the map.

The data shown on this map is for general information purposes only. The Ice Age Trail Alliance gives no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of these data. It is strongly recommended that only the Ice Age Trail Atlas and Ice Age Trail Companion Guide 2011 be used as official resources for information about the Trail.

As the Ice Age Trail evolves toward completion its route changes over time as volunteers build new sections and other sections are rerouted or closed. Weather and activities such as hunting and land management (e.g., logging) can also alter Trail navigation and access. Pushpins on the map above and detailed comments below (if any) are intended to keep Ice Age Trail users up to date on current Trail conditions and route changes (compared with the Ice Age Trail Atlas and Ice Age Trail Companion Guide 2011).

Thanks to the efforts from the IATA's local Lodi Valley Chapter and other volunteers from around the state and beyond, the Ice Age Trail's Gibraltar Segment (formerly the Colsac Segment) has been extended by another mile. Volunteers constructed the new section of Trail during a Mobile Skills Crew project, October 2010. Trailhead parking is available on Slack Road (click here for driving directions). Come enjoy a beautiful new section of the Ice Age Trail!

Lodi Valley:New Camping Option

Gibraltar Segment - New Dispersed Camping Area

effective date: Oct 19, 2010

Ice Age Trail Atlas Map 62f; Ice Age Trail Companion Guide p. 155

This segment is now home to a dispersed camping area created specifically for long-distance, multi-day Ice Age Trail hikers (click here for a map showing the exact location). The camping area has no facilities and is a “camp within sight of this sign”-type area. It offers multi-day, long-distance hikers a good spot to camp just off the Ice Age Trail in an area of the state where such opportunities are limited. The site is NOT intended for use by those looking to do a one-night out-and-back hike.


If you take a hike on the Ice Age Trail, please let us know how it went. Trail user reports are key to our ability to keep the Ice Age Trail well-maintained and user-friendly. If you notice something during your hike that you think should be included on this page, please let us know by contacting the Ice Age Trail Alliance main office (800-227-0046, info@iceagetrail.org). As you hike, please keep in mind that the Ice Age Trail is largely built and maintained by volunteers. We can always use your help!
