Center’s Trail Projects

Two one-day Environmentally Sensitive Trail Maintenance Trainings were completed in 2014. This training was developed with grant funding from the Community Conservation Partnerships Program administered by PA’s Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The ESM Trail Maintenance Training is designed to assist with reducing erosion and maintenance costs on your trails. Training modules include Geotextiles, Vegetation Management, Surface Drainage, Overland Flows, Trail Base, Trail Surface, and New Trail Sighting.
