The Last Call Trail at Kessler Mountain Regional Park has been temporarily closed.
In a partnership with the Ozark Off Road Cyclists, Fayetteville Parks and Recreation is temporarily closing the Last Call Trail at Kessler Mountain Regional Park. This closure includes the portion of Last Call from the lower intersection of Terrapin Station Trail to the upper intersection with Terrapin Station near the bluff line. The closure is expected to last for approximately four weeks.
Heavy, record-setting precipitation has led to many significant seeps on the mountain, particularly below the bluff line. Wet conditions coupled with improper trail use by all user groups (including cyclists and pedestrians) has led to significant damage in several areas. The damage has been particularly concentrated on Last Call, which lies at a lower elevation on the mountain.
Reconstruction efforts, led by the Ozark Off Road Cyclists, will include durable stone tread armoring while preserving the current identified difficulty rating of Last Call. The armoring stone will be sourced off-site to avoid increasing the environmental impact on the mountain.

The OORC will be hosting volunteer opportunities to help repair and reopen Last Call over the coming weeks and we need you! No experience necessary. Volunteers are just asked to wear sturdy close-toed shoes and gloves, and to bring hydration. The OORC will provide the tools and education.
If you can't make the volunteer opportunities but still wish to support our efforts, donations can be made at www.ozarkoffroadcyclists.org/kesslercampaign
