As part of my continued effort to improve public safety, we celebrated the ribbon cutting of new trail marker signs at Hansen Dam that will assist with locating people in an emergency. The Hansen Dam Recreational Area is a 1,449.54 acre facility. The 29 new signs include a new trailhead sign and mile markers that mark the trail in a grid system. Signs are in English, Spanish, and Braille and include location information that can be shared with the park ranger station. This new system will assist park users in better communicating their location to park rangers in an emergency by using the GPS coordinates associated with each sign.
