Replacing the Marker Posts
Wednesday, May 25th 2011
Even though the winds have blown all day the volunteers kept on working. The trails are being re-marked and we have added a new trail to the Foxglove inventory. The Explorer Trail takes in the whole perimeter of the reserve and goes through all of our habitats. Below, John and Michael have installed yet another post.
Here is new volunteer Kyle (below) hard at work digging out a hole for a new post.
All the posts will be replaced within the next couple of weeks and shortly we will have some new Trail Guides which will reflect the new paths. You will be able to get a new copy at the Field Centre. We'll let you know when they arrive.
