150, SE corner of map 6 re-routing of trails by the Forest Service
    The Orohai Trail has been re-routed near Hackamore Trailhead. Climb over the railing and the fence on the west side of the trailhead, then turn right and go north on the side road which parallels Packsaddle Road. The side road joins the Orohai Trail after 1/8 mile, where there was formerly a gap in the fence.
    Hiking is now allowed through the mining pit where Packsaddle Road makes a detour on the west side.
    Re-routed trails are shown in red:
