The outdoor door
toilets at the Trout Creek crossed were vandalized by unknown persons on the
Easter weekend. The toilet door was torn off, seat destroyed and the
whole toilet structure tipped over the bank. Knowing this toilet is used
by bikers, hikers, horse riders and atv'ers at this location on the
TransCanada Trail (KVR rail-bed). Also this site is near Trout Creek
which is Summerland's water source, something had t be done fast. Members of Summerland ATV Club on Sat April 30 using their ATVs went down to the site from Crump and winched the toilet structure over the pit. They then repaired the door and screwed the structure down to the base. This toilet is now open for use by all. Hopefully, this will be of the last vandalism at this site for the summer. Edgar Kelbert, Trail Maintenance for the Rails and Trails Society also reported numerous rock slides to the necessary persons so the rail bed can be safely used by all.
