As a place to go ride, it's marginal. Leave it to the neighborhood kids to build their jumps and people out walking their dogs. Recently, someone has been on the trail cutting and hacking up native plants. The bluff is a wonderful natural resource area, but it is also very fragile and difficult for plant life to survive. Native hawthorne and service berry bushes provide food and habitat for birds, deer and coyote.
Erosion is an ongoing problem.
Some of these plants will not survive the recent hack job that was done. Their root systems and proliferation are what keeps the hillside intact. Because of this action, the Parks and Recreation department came to assess the damage. The damage is extensive and unfortunately, we do not know what future action will be taken by the Parks Department. None of us wants to see restrictions put on the trails, but if the damage continues, private property owners may not be forgiving.
