Good morning,

This message is from Murphys Point Provincial Park...

As a result of the melting base layer, bare spots appearing on roadways and the impending flash freeze this evening, the trails at Murphys Point will be closed until further notice.

Also I wanted to advise you that work is being completed at our park gatehouse, so we will be closing the park trails permanently as of March 10th (the scheduled date of closure). The extended forecast right now does not look favourable for trails to re-open but we will continue to monitor the weather patterns over the next week.

Thank you,

Curtis Thompson  |  Provincial Park Superintendent,  Murphys Point/Rideau River Cluster

Thanks for all the volunteers who logged over a hundred hours removing trees and branches off the ski trails! Please be cautious while on the trails since branches continue to fall from the last ice storm
