Send to friendThe West Coronado Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) implementation team will stabilize approximately 17 miles of trails impacted by the Monument Fire to protect area watersheds.
Sometimes, when fires damage trails, they become another water transportation system that can carry sediment and contribute to downstream flooding, said BAER Implementation Leader Justin Seastrand. The emergency fix is to ensure that water control systems are in place where they have been compromised.
