Many trails have existing populations of invasive species that have not been addressed. The priority for trail stewards is to identify invasives that are new to an area or rapidly spreading. Some specific species to be alert for in new areas are Mile-a-minute, Japanese Knotweed, and the Spotted Lantern Fly.
Please describe any actions taken during your trail inspection such as pruning or trail clearing, removal of invasive plants, or picking up litter.
Describe any projects you think might benefit the site. Are there areas that would benefit from a boardwalk or wooden stairs? from improved trail markers? Is this a project that could be done by you alone, or with the help of a trail crew? Note that all projects must be approved by the trail owner in advance.
Did you see people using the trails? How many? What kinds of activities were they doing?
Please share any other information of interest. e.g.
Did you see any unusual or exciting species of plants or animals? How was your visit overall?
