Sleepy Hollow Park - review

An Earth Day Session to improve this park is set for this Sat. I went in after supper and did a quick walk through to understand the potential for building a trail system.

The feeder river is a swampy mess - clearing this may help a bit

Weird Short Construction Road

Proud Residents of the Park!

We will need rocks to create walkable crossings for the muddy areas, etc. A couple of spots were located...

 The "Trail"

The trail seemingly continues thru the woods but this section will need a lot of "improvement" as drainage is a big issue...

There are scattered locations to pull logs for corduroy crossings and makeshift "balance beam" crossings.

Connecting with Haig Ave. might be best served by paralleling the stream (folks love to walk next to a stream)

Thoughts...

Lastly, it would seem the goal also would be to build a trail that circles the pond and reconnects with the old bridge crossing.
