I went to the Shellburg Falls Trailhead (which is a location in the Portland Hikers Field Guide) on Saturday. It was CLOSED! No explanation was given at the trailhead.
The closure is documented at:
http://www.oregon.gov/ODF/northcascade/ ... ails.shtml
but no explanation is given there either. Grr, opaque government!
Anyway, if an editor could change the Shellburg Falls Trailhead and hikes pages (Shellburg Falls, August Mountain, and some other Falls) that would be great! Thanks for all your work, editors!

Re: Shellburg Falls Trailhead CLOSED
I Googled around a bit and found that it's closed for forestry operations "into the fall".
I added that to the three hikes in the field guide.
