Tree down across trail
Someone is camping off Dunn street near the Griffy trails. They have a nailed a private property sign to a tree and have a site with a large tent and other items set up.
There is a large tree down across the trail connecting S Basswood Drive and the Twin Lakes Sports Park parking area. I understand the trail may or may not be "official", but it is a well utilized connection by the community regardless and the trail is in good shape besides this downed tree. I was wondering if parks would be able to cut it up to clear the trail as our run club may be utilizing this trail for our route in March? Approximate location of downed tree shown on attached map. Thanks!
Water fountain was turned off. Please turn it back on.
People riding horses on the Clear Creek trail are not cleaning up after themselves.
At Leonard Springs nature park someone has spray painted “F*** Capitalism” on the side of the old concrete damn wall. It looks relatively fresh.
Second camp in muller
A campsite has been created in the Griffy Woods, just south of the North-most entrance to the trail system on Dunn street (south of the top of the hill/Dam). A path has been cleared off of the trail to the campsite area and a large area has been cleared for the campsite. There is a tent set up with gear, etc. present.
A signpost has apparently rotted and is now down next to the path indicating the start of the Bloomington Rail Trail where it splits off from the Clear Creek Trail, just past the pedestrian circle. This is at the south end of the trail, facing north towards That Road. The remaining standing post has a broken reflector.
