Update: Johnson Ferry North trail entrance reopens

Here’s an update to our report from last month about the temporary closure of the entrance to the Johnson Ferry North trail, due to repairs.

The entrance is at 301 Johnson Ferry Road, just north of the Chattahoochee River, and across from the entrance to Columns Drive

Reader Bob sent us the following report and the map above:

With the closure of JF North, I started running the trail from the Hyde Farm side.  There was a point on the trail that linked back to the Johnson Ferry North parking lot that had been blocked off with netting to prevent anyone from using that section, but today when I ran, that netting no longer existed.  I noted the section below that had been blocked off previously that is now reopened.  At the point where I turned around, there was still work going on but I probably could have gotten all the way to the JF North parking lot if I had wanted to.

The closures lasted a little more than the month anticipated by the National Park Service and was to construct a new culvert.
