Chattahootic National Recreation Area

Chattahootic River National Recreation Area was our second hitch. Chattahootic is a river that cuts through Atlanta, the recreation area preserves green space around the river providing a place for Alanta residents to hike, fish and go boating. One of Chattahootic's patches was infested by a monster cluster of Kudzu. We spent out hitch treating Kudzu by cutting the vines with loppers, machetes and brush cutters. We then treated the ground cover and the stumps of the veins with herbicide. Chattahootic was a lot of hard work for us, but we were glad to have a chance to tackle the worst invasive plant species in the South East.
