Old Wonderland Trail Section: Carbon River

Some maps still show the Wonderland Trail continuing on the right side of the Carbon River all the way to Carbon River Camp. However, this part of the trail was closed after the severe flooding in 2006; current trail use utilizes a lower Carbon River crossing (for the Northern Loop Trail) and continuing on to the suspension bridge on the left side. It is doubtful that the right side trail will ever be repaired or rerouted...it has been 15 years after all. In 2017 I checked out the old trail for some distance and present it here. Further up, the trail was eradicated right down to the bedrock.
