DENVER — The official trails map app for the state of Colorado has a new feature as we inch closer to the summer season: wildfire alerts.
More than two dozen partners use COTREX to share real-time advisories, which can range from safety hazards to wildlife closures. Now, it also includes active fire alerts — both wildfires and prescribed burns. Each alert will include boundaries, links and descriptions of the event. This data will stem from Inciweb and the National Interagency Fire Center. Management agencies that don't report to these two groups can post their wildfire and prescribed burn alerts, CPW said.
In addition to these wildfire alerts, COTREX also allows users to plan routes and download offline maps for hiking, biking, horseback riding, OHV and snow sports. The app also shows which trails are dog friendly. It is free to use and does not display ads.COTREX began in 2016 as part of former Gov. John Hickenlooper’s Colorado the Beautiful Initiative. After years of data outreach and development, CPW brought the idea to life and created a web-only version in 2017.
