Protect people, stay home. If it’s essential to go outside, practice safe and responsible recreation!
City and Boulder County open space trails are seeing increased usage and a significant number of people who are not following public health orders and guidance to practice physical distancing or to wear face coverings when leaving home. If this continues or if new health guidance is issued, additional park areas and open space trail closures may need to be considered.
To ensure that our public lands remain safe for everyone, the city would like to share important responsible recreation guidelines that will help protect community members, first responders, and parks and open space maintenance staff. Please share these important reminders with your friends and your family members.
Remember:
Maintain more than 6 feet of physical distancing.
Follow face-covering guidelines even when you visit parks and open space.
Avoid unnecessary travel and car rides to limit the spread of COVID-19 and to flatten the curve.
Visit OSMPTrails.org to see historic data that shows areas of high and low open space use and trails that are wider than 6 feet.
See when trails are busiest through OSMP’s Visitation Data Explorer.
Text "OSMP" to 888-777 to receive important open space updates.
Open Boulder is working diligently to lead the Boulder Public Lands Coalition interface with Boulder OSMP to keep open space open and accessible for us all. If you think the work we are doing is important, please consider supporting our on-going efforts with a tax-deductible donation today.
