Hocking Hills Trail Trolls start work on mountain biking trail

There's a Trail Trolls Project Day on Saturday, June 27, 2009, and they'll begin work on the NEW mountain biking trail in the Hocking Hills State Park! According to Naturalist Pat Quackenbush, the group will be clearing brush. The Trail Trolls welcome new members, so if you're interested call 740-385-8003, ext. 213 to sign up. Although anyone interested in working on the biking trail can just show up at the family camp parking area near Old Man's Cave at 9 a.m. Don't forget your lunch.

The trail has been flagged and will run about 4 miles and will avoid the cliff areas. It will be challenging and is not intended for the beginning biker. The trail has 2 loops, with one being easier and the other being difficult - something for everyone.

Just one more reason to visit the Hocking Hills this year.
