Des Moines trail: Is it still closed?
The "Greater Des Moines Recreational Trails" site lists 3 closures due to construction. https://www.ci.des-moines.ia.us/depar...Conditions.htm
They are:
1. John Pat Dorrian north of Botanical Center to Pennsylvania
2. John Pat Dorrian south of City Hall to SE 6th Street
3. Trestle to Trestle from Euclid to Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway and Madison
Does anyone know if this is still accurate? I plan to visit Des Moines this weekend and want to avoid any problem areas.
Thanks

Weather should be good. Those trails can take a LOT of miles. Heading west, you can connect with the Racoon River trail and go over 60 miles one way. Nice trails too except north of Panora. That section from Panora to Yale stinks right now.
