Cumberland Multiple Use Trail
Just a quick update to let our visitors know that today I went out with my trusty chainsaw and cleared the Cumberland Multiple Use Trail (CMT). I didn't get every little stick crossing the trail but any that prevented the easy passage of a hiker, mountain biker, or equestrian were removed. There are still some hazardous trees near the trail that need to be addressed in the very near future but for now the trail should be passable and enjoyable once more. I did note a bad stream crossing, a major wet area that needs to be rerouted, and some erosion issues. Hopefully I will be able to get our staff to address these issues soon. Also I hope to get some fresh blazes put up to avoid confusion on forest roads and rogue trails. That is all for now, this weekend sure would be a pretty one to come on out and enjoy the CMT!

Thanks for sharing this post. That’s good approach that you enable your staff for addressing these issues.
