We’ll be using a combination of a draw-knife and artistic over-painting to remove this, and will have both tools and supplies. If you’d like to help, we’re meeting up at the Cook Lane cul-de-sac at 2PM. There’s […] |

Plan to meet at the Dunk Rock Road entrance, parking in the lot near the Bishop’s raspberry field. Heavy rain will usually cancel any of these work parties, so […] |

This often forgotten trail is south of the railroad and entirely on the Great Harbor (State owned) Great Harbor Wildlife Management Area. With great vistas of the vast salt meadows and short boardwalk to a small island, it is seldom visited. We’ll be reblazing today, see the 20th of May for details of what to bring along. Please join us […] |
