TM report- Cockaponset SF / Weber Woods





TM Report: Cockaponset SF / Weber Woods
Date of activity: June 18, 2010
Trail Ambassador Name: Don Hazuka
Town: Clinton
Location: Cockaponset SF / Weber Woods

Work accomplished: the southwest entrance road (off Tower Hill) to the SF was heavily overgrown with branches scraping against any vehicle entering; horse riders had a very hard time passing because above head growth was in their faces; it was dangerous bike riding because you could not see what was coming around the bends and were shredded by the overhangs; removed all lower growth on foot with loppers and higher growth on ladder (did solo- not smart) with loppers; dragged all brush deep into woods out of sight; road used to be almost entirely shaded, now almost in complete sun.
