Reviewed 2026-10-22. Actual DNR map places Huber Park on the paved main section. The retained natural-trail collapse closure between Jordan Highway 9 and 145th Street is farther southwest; it is not cleared or generalized to this paved return. No same-day water-level claim. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.
