Trail Re-Route Project in 1009 acre Trout Brook Valley Conservation Area

On May 14, volunteers from the Aspetuck Land Trust and CT Northeast Mountain Biking Assoc. re-routed a section of the Blue trail in the Crow Hill preserve in the 1009 acre Trout Brook Valley Conservation Area. The result is a better trail for mountain bikers and hikers and more protection for wildlife who inhabit the nearby wetlands and vernal pools. Thanks to all for their great work on this project!
