The USFS has decided to let that one be reclaimed by the Earth.

Officially closed. Photos taken June 1, 2019...

Well I hate that. Least I did get to hike it in 2017. Some great pics in that post you shared. Arent there hiking trails in the PNW that are as bad or worse than DE? FS gonna shut them down too?

Yeah, very disappointing. My understanding is that WTA offered to maintain it, but could only do so until the point at which it (again) required blasting... and the USFS didn't want to continue doing that.

You can still get to that viewpoint at the end, "legally," by wrapping back from the east side.
