Katy Trail (Missouri)

Right now there are several sections of the trail affected by the Missouri River flooding. The revised crest at Jeff City is for tonight or tomorrow morning and then a slow fall is predicted after that. MO State Parks does a pretty good job of keeping their advisories updated so I would keep checking the links I included in this and the previous post. Hope all works out for your trip.

Looks like Sedalia to Hermann is no longer flooded but may have debris on the trail bed from water being over it. Today's advisory shows the only flooding to be downstream closer to St. Louis.

Your trip may be over or cancelled by this point but last night's rain pushed the Missouri back over the top of the Katy at Easley and Wilton and we've got more heavy rain coming every day this week.

We did it! No problems with flooding. Thanks for the updates. I'll post a full trip report soon (we've been relocating and have had little internet access).

Cheers

Great to hear, look forward to the trip report. We are still getting hammered by rain and have some flash flooding going on here this morning. All the singletrack in the area is so saturated that none of us have been able to ride mountain bikes for 3 or 4 weeks now. Glad your trip was able to happen.
