We are getting close to primo Turkey Creek riding season so we thought we'd park a car at each end, hike and cut with Morry today. We took out 8 trees, including the one on the bridge. Sadly, the bridge will be needing some structural work soon, we suspect. Didn't take pics of all the trees but here are most of them....it might be a little boring....ha ha ha. Thanks to the crew that did the mowing and lopping a few weeks ago. The trail is PERFECT now. It was great seeing a large group riding it last weekend and we hope more folks get out and ride it! Before: After: Before: After: Before: After: Before: After: Before: After: Before: After (Morry's getting pretty tired at this point, thankfully): Took a break close to the confluence and now that Morry has the bandage off his tail and the cone of shame gone, he was able to take his first swim. He loved it! He's the best trail dog. Happy boy...

Great pictures Becky, not boring at all, thanks so much for sharing! It takes an awful lot of work to maintain these trails and with so many trees falling over the course of a year, if you don't post pictures from time to time, not sure trees down that are now gone might not even be noticed by a rider since more will fall to take their place. When we cut trees, even we don't notice them when we ride right by them the next time!

Turkey was in great shape this morning. Glad to see a few guys out on the trail this morning. Wish more people rode it to keep the tread fast. And great job on mowing and lopping.

a non rider is down about 6-6.5 miles in.Other than that, trail is clear. Give it some wheels!
