We have a couple of trail projects lined up for this year in addition to our monthly chapter workdays.. We will be building a new Dispersed Camping Area (DCA) just uphill from this beaver dam bridge on the Firth Lake Segment. This is near the western trailhead on 245th Ave. (Moonridge Trail). We will also be building new trail to replace our detour at Horseshoe Lake on the Chippewa Moraine Segment. Several years ago, lake levels on Horseshoe Lake rose about 2 feet higher than the bridge across a channel. The flooded bridge was removed after a temporary detour was made on an old forest road. We are now going to replace that detour with a more scenic trail high above the lake.
Look for information about our upcoming trail work in future emails.
