The East Bay Regional Park District's hazardous tree removal and fuel mitigation project at Redwood Regional Park's East Ridge Trail has ended for the remainder of 2008, and the East Ridge Trail is open for use during normal hours by trail users. The Park District will spread native grass seed and take other measures to improve soil stability and reduce the potential for erosion in disturbed areas. The project will resume in summer 2009 along the south side of the trail. More info.
