Trailhead Upgrades
With the recent purchase of the Upper Beehive Basin trailhead parcel, BSCO is planning improvements to expand parking and add essential amenities, including bear-proof trash cans, restrooms, and updated kiosks. Funded in part by a Recreational Trails Program grant, the project will improve safety, reduce roadside parking, and enhance access for emergency services—while permanently preserving the land as RT & Ralph’s Beehive Preserve.

With the purchase of the parcel on which the Upper Beehive Basin trailhead is located, BSCO is designing improvements to add additional parking and needed trailhead amenities such bear proof trash cans, a toilet facility and updated trailhead kiosks. The project is funded in part by a Recreational Trails Program grant. These improvements will improve the existing trailhead facilities and safety by reducing the number of vehicles parking on the roadway and allowing better access for emergency services and homeowners. The project will result in the dedication of the entire parcel as RT & Ralph’s Beehive Preserve.
Additionally, the Ousel Falls trailhead is in the process of a redesign to allow for the initiation of service by the Skyline Bus. The parking lot will include a second entrance/exit to allow for the busses to pull through the parking lot efficiently and safely. The service will allow for the ability to hike to Ousel Falls from Town Center via Uplands and Ralph’s Pass and catch a ride back to town.
