I would really like to see emergency call buttons placed along the B line trail. I love walking the trail, but I don't feel comfortable walking alone, especially since some portions of the trail are very isolated. I know that many citizens, especially women, would use the trail more if they felt safer.
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.
Do you maintain the Griffey Reservoir trails? The trails going from Meadowood through the woods no longer have chips on them. and in some areas, vegetation is now overhanging the trails. A couple of the direction signs seem to have been switched around a bit. A number of us here at Meadowood would be thrilled to have some maintenance done! Many thanks!
light on b-line pole 87 is out.
The water fountain (doggie fountain portion) on the Clear Creek trail that is halfway between That Rd. and Rockport Rd. (Just behind the house at the end of Dove Dr on the trail) is not functioning. It has not been functioning all year at all since it was turned on in the spring. Our pets out walking could use a little repair help please :) Thanks, Kevin
The stop sign for trail users on the Bloomington Rail Trail is leaning pretty severely and is not visible for trail users. It's on the Bloomington Rail Trail, north side of Gordon Pike.
Tree growing over trail, very unsafe for kids walking to school and bike riders.
Tree growing over trail. Unsafe for bikers and walkers. Between Fritz Terrace and BHSN
Do you know when ulitly pole removed at Jackson creek trail
On Sunday afternoon after all the rain, I noticed a debris dam across the creek that was holding back some water. Yesterday it was not holding back water, but remains in a position to collect more debris in the next rains. On Sunday I could see from the trail through Olcott woods that the water had overflowed at the dam and moved across the low land on the north side of the creek, through the grove of pawpaws.. Part of the debris came from a pile that had been just below the bridge. The dam includes a tree trunk that is now caught on an upright tree. If you go to the bridge and stand on the Olcott end and look downstream, you can see the debris dam.
