Juan de Fuca Trail closed this summer due to storm damage, forcing hikers to find alternative routes.

The Juan de Fuca Trail in British Columbia, a popular wilderness hike, is closed for the summer due to severe damage from fall and winter storms, including a bomb cyclone. Key sections of the trail were washed away or blocked by fallen trees, and infrastructure like bridges, shelters, and campsites was damaged. The government plans to reopen the trail in phases as repairs are completed, leaving hikers to find alternative routes for now.
