Not the value within, counting trees for harvest, but the value that lies for each man and woman to reconnect with nature. The harvesting of our natural resource does not go unnoticed by those who wish to spend time in the woods. The state would benefit greatly from using the Knobstone Trail, the Techumsa Trail, and the Pioneer Trail to involve the community to trail run, bike, backpack, and hike. The small segments of state forests are great but having a 150 mile continuous trail would greatly improve the economy in the state. sharepublic : Yes Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2020 1:05 PM name : Cody Roush email : [email protected] resident : Martin comments : State needs to manage the timber like they do in Tennessee so we can ride atvs and utv on our tax payers property sharepublic : Yes Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2020 2:45 PM name : Jim McIntyre email : [email protected] resident : Decatur comments : Indiana needs to log old gowth forest more aggressively to create better habit growth .
