The St. Albans Forest trail improvement project is moving along at a steady pace. In November, we shared a trail map proposal created by Sinuosity. Continuing our work with this amazing company, we now have the "St. Albans Forest Comprehensive Trail Plan" to further guide the project.
While the recent focus has been on the St. Albans Forest project, we're still making plans for how to move ahead with the St. Albans Recreation Reserve project (Aldis Hill and Hard'ack). Sinuosity has provided a trail map proposal along with the "St. Albans Recreation Reserve Trail Sustainability and Management Plan". At this point, Hard'ack and Aldis Hill are looking for grants and funding opportunities to begin the work on the bigger changes (work that requires heavy machinery, some trail building, some trail closures, etc.), and for the more manageable changes (some trail building, some trail closures, trail widening, etc), we'll be setting up some dates to get a group of volunteers together.
We'll keep you updated as these projects, and others around Franklin County, continue to develop. And, if you know of any other trail systems that could benefit from some attention, shoot us an email. Let's keep the good things coming in little, ol' Franklin County!
