Quesnel residents are reminded to avoid the areas of Panorama Ridge and Dragon Hill Road until further notice due to the potential risk of landslide.
As a result of the land movement, these areas have become potentially hazardous which includes the use of the trail systems in both locations.
In a news release, the City is asking people not to use or visit the trails located around Panorama Ridge.
Bryce trail and the mountain biking trails south of the Quesnel and District Recreation Centre are still available for use, but the adjoining backtrails through the downgrade/hillside of Dragon Hill Road and Panorama Ridge are considered unsafe at this time and should not be used.
