USFS Website Changes
milldozer:
I searched for road/trail conditions in my national forest of interest and can't find any of the information that is typically there. Looks like the whole FS website was re-done, but a bunch of information is missing. I just called the office and the gal said "there currently isn't a spot for that information on the website". As far as I can tell there's no way to lookup current conditions and closures short of calling the office each time. Even then you rarely get a person that can answer questions. Super frustrating they can't put out basic information about public access. Anyone else run into this?

DOGE fired 3400 USFS personnel in February - may have to do with them not updating FS road conditions

Seems to be working for me. This is for MBSNF. More frequent updating would be nice though. I can't seem to open the other NF areas in Washington though.

This is exactly what I'd like to see. No such luck for the okanogan-wenatchee.
CarbonHunter:
They definitely updated the site and it doesn’t look like they asked anyone who used the site what they thought about the new layout. In some circumstances there is actually more information available but in others they dropped whole sections.
