Basin Recreation will close the Run-A-Muk dog park periodically during the day starting Monday, Jan. 26.

Recreation officials say unseasonably warm weather and mud has caused significant damages to the trails, and more warm weather is on the way.

The dog park opens at 7 a.m. and closes at 7 p.m. but starting Jan. 26, Run-A-Muk will be open daily after 11 a.m.

Trail officials say walking on muddy trails causes significant damage and repairs can be extremely costly and labor-intensive.

Officials ask trail users in the Snyderville Basin to keep to snowpacked or dry trails.

Snyderville Basin Recreation is a financial supporter of KPCW.
