2024 Illiniwek Trimming Status
The vegetation got a head start this year and is already starting to droop into the trails.
If you have a couple hours to help, pick a section, or more than one ;), on the map below and go to town trimming back vegetation that is encroaching on the trails. We usually trim at least 2 feet to each side of the trail. Leave any trees within this zone obviously. FORC has a handful of trimmers we can loan you. Post below if you need one and we can make arrangements. Once a section is completed, let us know so we can update this thread.
Recommended gear for trimming: Long pants/shirt, sturdy shoes, eye protection, bug head net, bug repellent, water/snack.
Section | Status
1 - South Down & Connector | Trimmed
2 - South Up | Trimmed
3 - Upper South West | Trimmed
4 - Upper South East | Trimmed
5 - Connector & North Climb | Trimmed
6 - Overlook Loop | Trimmed
7 - Trimmed
8 - North Down | Trimmed
