As of June 1, 2024, a new primitive log bridge will allow foot traffic to cross a side channel of the Taiya River at Mile 1.5. Along with a re-route at mile 2.0, hikers can access the Chilkoot Trail up to Mile 4, for day use only. The bridge allows visitors to enjoy about a 7-hour roundtrip day-use experience this summer.
