Erosion of pavement on Clear-Creek trail at the Tapp Road overpass.
Erosion of pavement on Clear-Creek trail at the Tapp Road overpass.
There is a large poison hemlock plant on the east side of the Pete Ellis Multi-use path, just before the Polly Grimshaw Trail crossing. And nearby, there is vegetation growing onto the multi-use path that reduces its width.
There are a number of trees down between the starry view entrance to rca park trail and the summit elementary entrance- thought it was just one, but it seems like 3-4 larger trees blocking the path
There are several spots along the Rail Trail (dirt/gravel section of the B-Line) where dirt has been dug up across the full width of the trail to build impromptu bike jumps. This has resulted is trip hazards and an uneven trail surface. I counted 2 spots where his had occurred during my visit yesterday. Can someone review and hopefully correct this please?
A group of people have set up camp within the park. They have tents, sheets hung blocking the view, etc. They have beaten a trail to where they are camping and have removed vegetation to clear the site. I haven't seen it, but my adult son was out there looking for our dog and stumbled onto the campsite. He said if you park in the lot and go southeast, you'll find the camp. They are staying away from the old pond area and where there are workers. We just hate to see destruction in the park! Thanks, Martha
broken trees are covering most of the trails from the previous storm
On the trail by Winslow Sports Park, adjacent to Highland, near Winslow Farm Rd. There's a short wooden bridge/boardwalk. We were biking on the trail as an alternative to riding on Highland Ave and my son crashed at the bridge. He's fine, but it wasn't fun and it could've been worse. The wood was wet and friction strips are missing/ineffective in areas. There's also a large bump from asphalt to wood, so his tires were bouncing anyway. On top of that, the bridge is located in a turn - you can't even go over it straight, you have to be turning. Turning a bike on wet wood is destined for failure. Please replace this bridge. Preferably a permanent solution, like a culvert covered by concrete, which will permanently resolve the friction and bump issue. Wood will just become an issue again. Thank you.

The row of shrubs on the southwest side of the B line at Rogers need to be removed (every other one?) or trimmed so they are not a place for concealed drug use. Thank you.
