Hello and Welcome,

Could you explain what the issue is.

Looking at the Map it is in a shared cell so will not be used as a pokestop / gym.

As it recently been moved to this location?

Good Luck.

Pokemon Go has a wayspot of the Far Point Loop Trail marker at the end of the footbridge, but that is a separate POI which was approved in 2023.

The footbridge was removed after May 2025. Since the trail marker has not been removed, despite its existence being provable to the same degree, this suggests that this Gym removal was done abusively.

You will need to provide provably-current visual evidence that this exists today, which I definitely expect it does. I recommend a video as you can then include the other wayspots in this to help show the location.

Thanks for the appeal, @clikitykaklow! We have taken another look, but stand by our decision to retire this Wayspot.
