Hello! I serve as the trail monitor @ Lower Cascades Pk. There is a sizable tree down and across the Overlook trail. Trunk diameter is est. 18 inches or more, with three sizable branches extending from the main trunk. I can climb through it but a number of individuals would have issues getting by.

Can this tree be removed? It tends to collect brush & small branches, clogging the creek. (I cleared those away.) This is by the Sycamore shelter, closest to Old State Rd 37 and by the north-most parking lot. Thank you.

Last w/e, found pieces of shattered, clear glass on the limestone steps by the creek. Location is adjacent to the volley ball net. I picked up the larger pieces. Today I walked thru the area; with the sunlight, can still see several pieces about dime and quarter sized. Can easily cut or embed in feet or paws. Can someone sweep or vacuum? Thank you.

The gravel/cinder trail between the parking lot and the large shelter is now a flowing stream. There's a waterfall on the hill/cliff that normally turns and flows parallel to and then under the trail, but has overflowed its banks at the spot where it turns. It's eroded part of the trail all the way to the parking lot (stopped by the paved pedestrian "lobby", where it is pooling). Not a disaster, but it does push pedestrians onto the grass. Wanted to make sure you were aware. Thanks for all you do to keep our parks in such great shape overall!

Sycamore Shelter - As of Saturday, March 6 at around 5:30 p.m., there was human feces on the ground near the fireplace. Additionally, there was trash left on the shelter's tables and in the fireplace.
Waterfall Shelter - At the same time as above, there was a gentleman sleeping in the fireplace of the shelter. He appeared to be using this as his primary shelter/home.
As a result from the trash, feces, and individual, both shelters were rendered unusable for families.

Overgrown trees block stop sign on Kenwood and make it impossible for cars turning left onto Kenwood from Dunn Street to see traffic on Kenwood. Also overgrown trees along Dunn force people to walk in the street - combined with need to pull very far forward on Kenwood to see traffic this has led to 3 close calls (car+car; car+car; car+pedestrian). I thought I submitted in close call but never got uReport number. Perhaps my error or wrong category. Please help prevent accident & take action now that you are aware of the issue. Thank you.

I dropped by car off yesterday at World Wide Auto, and was biking home (heading west) along the sidepath on the north side of Tapp Road. Somewhere between Deborah Drive and Weimer Road, there is a drive cut, and the sidepath has a sudden and difficult to see drop of about 8 inches to the ground. There is no warning of this drop, and I had quite a crash because of this.
This needs to be corrected ASAP.
Thanks!
