Summary
In June 1981, the Beaver Beacon reported that a trail to Hidden Valley was near completion. It directed hikers to an entrance on Lakeview Road near Driftwood Court.
The report establishes a contemporary trail entrance and approximate road setting, but not the builders, exact route, formal project name, or a later completion record.
Open questions
- Was the trail completed, and what is its current name and route?
- Can a map or park record locate the entrance more precisely?
- Was the trail connected to the nearby campground or beach access described in the same report?
If you can answer any of these, or correct anything above, the archive wants to hear it — see Corrections.
