Will the city close trails on certain days? So we do have a summer heat program which is triggered by National Weather Service heat warnings and particularly our most dangerous locations.

But the trails where our firefighters really struggle, we do close some of those based on how hard it is to get folks in and out. We've had firefighters hospitalized after these rescues.
