Our focus will be on the Lacywood Overlook Trail, and then if we have energy the Scyene Overlook Trail. Piedmont Ridge is one of the adventure chapters in Wild DFW.

For this restoration day we’ll:
<> Pick up trash as needed.
<> Cut privet and photinia away from the trail.
<> Re-mark the trail with biodegrable marking tape.
<> Use the Extractigator to yank up small privet and nandinas.
<> Drag cut brush and fallen timber to block eroding trails sections

Please register so we can notify you if the date changes due to weather: https://volunteersignup.org/99ETT

Wear:
<> Sturdy closed-toe shoes
<> Leather or garden gloves
<> Long pants

Bring:
<> Trash bags & grocery sacks
<> Garden loppers if you have them

Other tools graciously provided by Trinity Coalition.

Friends of Piedmont is a casual group that loves the ridge. Joe, Kristi, Linda, Sharon, and I would love for you to join us! It’ll take a while, but trail signs are underway.

After a break, if we’re not too tuckered we may hike the JJ Beeman Trail that connects to Scyene Overlook.
