Rails to Trails spring clean up this Saturday
“When we wrote the Trail Stewardship Grant, we committed to holding an annual cleanup day and this is the first one!” beamed Diane Magone, chairperson of the Mineral County Rails to Trails chapter.
“We are mostly concerned about the 2-mile section upper trail as it is officially designated a part of the Great American Rail-Trail and is reflected as such on their cross-country map, but we also will be cleaning up the lower trails, the Austin-Woodhouse Scenic Loop, as time permits.”
From reports, Magone was told that there is very little trash so the cleanup will consist mostly of removing pinecones and brush from the trails. Bert Lindler and Kristi DuBois with the Great Burn Conservation Alliance have been out to the trail that goes past the eagle’s nest, which appears to be inactive.
