The many loads of
road rock to be put on the 2.2 mile expansion of the Wet Weather Trail
have been piled at the end of the road into the Lick Creek Unit. Many
Thanks to the William J and Donna M Hoaglin Foundation for the $10,000 funding
for the rock.
Forester John Byrd was hard at work this week loading rock
into a dump truck and then spreading the rock on the trail that has
been prepared for the rock.
This photo shows a trail section
that has just been rocked. (The view down the trail is from the back of
Friesian Jupiter while Lora was riding with Marsha on Gussie.) Much more to go
to finish the 2.2 miles but Thanks very much to John and Crew for the work already
done. The work on the WWT could not be done until the trails dried out so now is the
time.
Know how to operate a dump truck, a skid steer? Call John and offer to help. 1-319-878-3811
The purpose of the Friends of Shimek is to support the DNR staff in developing and maintaining the Shimek campgrounds and equestrian trails consistent with good forestry practices and the protection of our state's natural resources. The Lick Creek Unit has two public equestrian campgrounds with over 25 miles of trails for equestrians, bicyclists and hikers in Shimek's Lick Creek Unit. The two primitive campgrounds are White Oak and Bitternut Campgrounds.
