– I have a PowerPoint presentation almost ready to introduce to the pertinent local trail groups as soon as it is reviewed more. It should last ten to fifteen minutes, and contains most relevant information regarding the guidelines and morals of the Sustainable Trail Manual.
– The main objective is to let the various groups, such as the Yough River Trail Council, learn about sustainable trail maintenance and work along side them to implement sustainable practices. It overviews the importance of native versus invasive plant species, alternatives to pesticide use, “Leave No Trace” practices, and links to research more on the topics.
