Trail Incident Report

If you see something, say something – The Superior Hiking Trail Association can keep the SHT as safe as possible for trail users.

If you or another SHT user needs medical attention or law-enforcement, call 911 immediately.

If you are in a situation where you need an immediate response but are unable to make a phone call, or might put yourself at risk by making a call, text a friend and ask them to call 911 with your exact location, state, and nature of the incident. Cell service is unreliable along much of the Superior Hiking Trail, but a text message may get through where a phone call will not.

Please use the Trail Incident Report form below if you:
  • Observe threatening activity on the Trail and are not in immediate danger
  • Observe vandalism or resource damage on the Trail
  • Come across a downed tree after June 15th, 2022
  • Find the Trail washed-out or undercut due to flooding
  • Find displaced or damaged boardwalk or bridges
  • Find confusing, mislabeled, or damaged signs on the Trail
  • Encounter an aggressive or habituated animal on the Trail
  • Find errors in our publications and maps


You can also email [email protected] to alert the Superior Hiking Trail Association’s staff. Please note that an email or form submission will not trigger an immediate response, particularly on weekends and after hours.
