Steamboat Trace OPEN!

Alex Lepert — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 17:37:49 +0000

On Monday, October 17, Nemaha NRD crews were finally able to open a portion of the Steamboat Trace trail after more than four months of closure. The opening is limited, however, to that section from Peru north to Minersville, which is south of Nebraska City. Access at the north end is limited since the original trailhead near the OPPD coal power plant is currently inaccessible. Therefore, visitors are encouraged to use the Peru trailhead for both their starting and ending points. Parking is limited at the Minersville end of the trail, and traveling the gravel roads to Minersville during this busy harvest season is not recommended. The portion that is now open is about nine miles one way.

No estimates have been made as to when the south part of the trail from Peru to Brownville might be reopened. Missouri River floodwaters and sediment damaged several sections of the trail, and some bridges are also in need of repair. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
