WORK TO BE PERFORMED: We are going to clear out the trail tread that was cut last year from winter debris of deadfall, leaves, debris, and undergrowth on the Upland Woods Loop. We will also be working on cutting access from Kellogg Road and scouting some of the farm field for future trail development. We will also start harvesting rocks for trail armoring before the growth fills in for the season.

Any questions please contact Trail Coordinator, Neal Glazebrook.
