Smokey Bottom Trail, ONP (formerly known as West Lake Mills)
 
email info@graywolftrailcrew.org if you would like to join this crew.
 
Smokey Bottom Trail, ONP. This is the trail that runs along the west side of what used to be Lake Mills. It now makes a loop with a trail that goes along the former lakebed, which has now been revegetated. We have taken care of this trail for several years running.
 
On this day we will address clearing the logs (there aren't many), rebenching the tread and brushing. The logs are spread out over the 2-mile trail. The tread and brushing will be just for 1-1/4 miles because we did the rest of the trail so thoroughly last year. 
 
The trailhead is located at the site of the former boat launch, right near the former dam. The easiest way to get there is by bike. It's about a 3-ish mile ride, with 1/2 mile being a push over the bypass. We will get the tools into our packs or strapped to the outside. It's doable, we've done it before. If you prefer not to bike, walking is fine too - you'll just start a little earlier. 
 
When: Saturday, March 7
Where: Madison Falls trailhead
Time: Arrive by 8:15 for an 8:30ish departure
 
Logistics and details will be emailed to the crew a few days beforehand.
