Other: Last summer I went hiking at Leonard Springs Nature Park at least once a week (I live down the road) and I just followed the trail around in the big loop and I never had an issue. There were no need for signs because there were no forks in the path or anything like that. Today I went hiking there for the first time since last fall and I got lost for nearly an hour and ended up on a new trail that led me to someones private property where they were hunting. There are at least 4 places where the the trail forks and there are no signs telling you which way to go and where they lead. I took a right turn and the trail dead ended and I found myself in the middle of nowhere. I am an experienced hiker and I have a good sense of direction but something weird is going on with this trail. There are giant bulldozed areas with no description that lead nowhere. This is very unsafe. And why on earth would one of these trails lead to someones property where they have hunting equipment set up? Those rednecks are hunting back there where people are hiking. Also there is broken glass and polar pops everywhere. I know the Indiana crowd isn't super classy to begin with, but I think we all pay enough taxes to permit someone cleaning up that trail every now and then. My dog stepped on a broken beer bottle. The whole situation is just disgusting.
New trail signs were installed previously. Please let us know if this remains an area of concern.
Trail signage at Leonard Springs will be reevaluated this spring and boundary signage will be placed on property lines near trails.
Steve any plans for future signage?
