Trail Map

Click the Trail Map on the right to view or print a detailed map of the preserve showing the location of our present and future walking trails. Don't forget to bring your locks if you come by bicycle, as bikes are not allowed on the walking trails. This is a large PDF file, and will take several minutes to download on a slow modem connection, so be patient. If you don't have the free Adobe Acrobat Reader for PDF files installed on your computer (most newer systems do), you can download it from Adobe .

 

Trail Sign Book

Many folks have commented on the little signs found along the trails and boardwalk that identify plants and critters in the preserve. Most of these photos were taken and processed into the signs by Nancy Deam using a custom MS Access program created by John Deam. Nancy has now designed an 18 page book of all our trail signs that we have saved as an Adobe PDF file that you can view or download and print on your color printer.

 

This is a LARGE file (9 MB) that will take some time to download on a slow modem connection.

Our First Trail


 

 

 

 

Our first marked trail had its official opening on Sunday, Jan 27, 2002. Jim Thomas, our biologist and plant expert lead a group on an interpreted walk at 2:00 P.M. starting at the Trail Shelter and winding along the new uplands trail through the old sinkhole. The trail continues along the wetlands edge to the amphitheater. From there, it crosses the uplands area to show some of the new plantings that are the beginnings of the restoration project, and ends back at the Trail Shelter.  Many small signs have been installed along the trail to identify the plants and animals you may see along the way.
