Nearly a mile-and-a-half of temporary trail has been installed on Tristan's Trail, which is in honor of Tristan White, who was hit and killed by a motorist in November 2015. At the time, he was a 14-year-old high school freshman conditioning for wrestling practice. The trailhead is located near Zion Drive and Main Street, north of the Zion Cemetery. Andyn White is the younger sister of Tristan and has served as the spokesperson for the project. White tells KMA News establishing a route with temporary trails became more feasible than placing a more permanent concrete trail.
