Trail Maintenance
Volunteer-led trail maintenance efforts are ongoing throughout the wet season and have several elements:
- Scraping leafy debris and mud off trails down to the original gravel base.
- Spreading fresh, usually thin layers of gravel on trail segments that have become soggy.
- Adding deeper layers of gravel to spots that are ponding during rainstorms, to elevate them.
- Widening trail segments that have been narrowed by slow erosion from their uphill sides.
- Cleaning out and occasionally replacing culverts and adding new ones.
- Restoring or adding ditches beside and across trails, to keep water off them.
