2 Ridgelines, Fall 2014 Governor Malloy, DEEP Commissioner Klee and Hamden Mayor Jackson Join Students for Trout Stocking Event at Lake Wintergreen Governor Dannel P. Malloy, Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) Commissioner Rob Klee, and Mayor Scott Jackson today joined first and fifth graders from Hamden’s Helen Street and Ridge Hill Schools for a trout stocking event at Lake Wintergreen in preparation for the opening day of trout fishing season on Saturday, April 19, 2014. The annual trout stocking of Connecticut’s lakes and streams is used as an opportunity to teach students about the importance of the state’s natural resources. “Joining young students today provides an opportunity to highlight for them the importance of protecting our natural resources, the value of environmental stewardship, and the simple fun of enjoying the outdoors,” Governor Malloy said. “Connecticut is blessed with tremendous natural resources – including many rivers, lakes, and ponds that offer great fishing opportunities, which I know tens of thousands of anglers will enjoy again this season.” Since 1986, instructors from the DEEP’s Connecticut Aquatic Resources Education (CARE) program have taught 165,000 students about water, fish, and fishing. In April, CARE instructors visited the Helen Street and Ridge Hill School, Governor Malloy helps stock trout. combining classroom science with information about fisheries science. Through the CARE curriculum, these first and fifth graders were taught the basic principles of becoming stewards of our state’s waters and fish for years to come. “DEEP is hard at work stocking our waterways with trout so anglers across our state can enjoy a great opening day and fishing season,” Commissioner Klee said. “By the time the season ends, we will put about 700,000 trout from our hatcheries into state waters. We hope the youngsters helping us stock Lake Wintergreen will urge their parents and friends to experience the joys of spending quality time outdoors fishing together.” In preparation for opening day, DEEP stocked more than 350,000 adult brook, brown, and rainbow trout in over 100 lakes and ponds and 200 rivers and streams around the state. Lake Wintergreen is one of 11 metropolitan water bodies stocked as part of the state’s Community Fishing Waters program. This initiative provides a unique fishing experience for many urban residents by stocking fish in convenient and easily accessible locations right in their neighborhoods. “Partnering with DEEP’s Fisheries Division has been a win-win situation for Hamden,” Mayor Jackson said. “DEEP provides instruction and guidance to teachers and all 6th grade students in the Hamden public school system on fish and fishing. This hands-on instructional DEEP Commissioner Klee and a student stock trout. program also provides our younger students with an opportunity to be outside stocking fish for opening day at Lake Wintergreen.” Ridgelines, Fall 2014 3 “The opening of fishing season is a wonderful spring tradition and a part of Connecticut’s culture that thousands of families enjoy each year,” Speaker of the House Brendan Sharkey (D-Hamden) said. “I am thrilled that over the years our annual trout stocking program has also evolved into an outdoor classroom experience for students across the state to learn about our environment and the importance of protecting our natural resources.” “DEEP has been an active educator in our towns over the years, teaching many thousands of students about the local environment,” State Senator Joseph J. Crisco, Jr. (D-Woodbridge) said. “Under Governor Malloy’s and Commissioner Klee’s leadership, this legacy of learning has continued. I’m glad that we can help teach kids about the joys of outdoor activities while simultaneously educating them on environmental stewardship. This is a wonderful day for Hamden.” DEEP’s No Child Left Inside® initiative continues to be one of the highlights for DEEP, and fishing is an integral part of this program. Anglers under age 16 can participate in the free Youth Fishing Passport Program, which enables a young angler and his/her family to participate in fun fishing activities and receive benefits from participating fishing businesses. Details about the program are www.ct.gov/DEEP/YFP. For those over age 16, fishing licenses are available on-line at www.ct.gov/deep/sportsmenlicensing. The 2014 Connecticut Angler’s Guide is a source for fishing-related information, including the current regulations that apply to Connecticut waters. Excellent trout fishing can be found across the state, including in one of many Trout Management Areas, Trout Parks, Trophy Trout Streams, Sea-Run Trout Streams, and Wild Trout Management Areas. The Angler’s Guide is available at all town clerks offices, many DEEP offices, and at tackle stores selling fishing licenses, and can be downloaded at www.ct.gov/deep/anglersguide.

Students joyfully help stock trout in Lake Wintergreen.

Trail Work: a note from WRR Volunteer Trails Manager Tom Ebersold If you are and see a smaller problem, please email me at [email protected]. I will get out there when I can to assess the situation. If you see a large tree across the trail, which I would define as one foot diameter or larger, call the park office at (203) 287-5658. If you see any illegal park use, such as ATVs, call the Environmental Conservation Officers at (860) 424-3333. If anyone would like to be added to the email list for the crew, please contact me at [email protected]. The crew typically meets on a Saturday at 9 a.m. at the main gate and works until noon, although I usually stay until 2 or 3 p.m. There is no set schedule, but it tends to be once a month when the weather is favorable, and I email people two weeks in advance. While some projects are vigorous work like step building, most are light to medium duty tasks of cutting brush and small limbs. We need both kinds of help.

4 Ridgelines, Fall 2014 West Rock is for the Birds! By Stephen P. Broker West Rock Ridge's variety of habitats for birds, from fields and talus areas to summit and cliff face, provides many challenges and rewards to the birder, whether enthusiastic amateur or dedicated expert. This is particularly true during the spring breeding and migrating season. The New Haven Bird Club's April 13 field trip for members and its participation in the annual New Haven (area) Summer Bird Count on June 7 and 8 contributed to the ongoing studies of bird life on the ridge - monitoring what species are there (or not) and analyzing what their numbers reveal. Weather, such as a cold spring, can play a significant role. Twenty-two enthusiastic birders attended the April morning trip, walking up Baldwin Drive (no cars allowed) en route to the summit road, searching and listening as they went. A warming sun (rather wan this time) triggers insect activity, which stimulates many birds into becoming active. The American Robin and Northern Cardinal were among those seen on the walk. Once the ridge top was reached, the group had excellent views of the West River Valley below, while Turkey Vultures cruised up and down the long ridge in search of lifting thermals and potential food sources. On the summit walk on southern Baldwin Drive the group's focus was on the intertwined lives of peregrines and ravens. Peregrine Falcons have been nesting at West Rock Ridge since a pair first appeared in 1999. Common Ravens became resident nesters in 2002. In most years, the two species have nested within 40 yards of each other, protecting their own space from avian intruders with great facility. We heard one of the adult ravens “kronking” toward the end of the walk. Why were the ravens not visible and feeding young at this season? In the Spring 2014 issue of Ridgelines I noted that this year’s egg-laying began nearly three weeks ahead of the previous early start of reproduction. I suggested that such an early start was risky to the birds because of continuing wintry weather, but I held out hope that the ravens would again be successful in their raising young. Sadly, they were unable to hatch any eggs due to an extremely long and harsh winter. Absent a nest with eggs, the adults had less binding attachment to the cliffs opposite Konold’s Pond. They continue to remain at West Rock, however, and their chances of successful nesting in 2015 are very high. The peregrine pair was very visible in flight above the cliff and while perching on favored ledges. They took turns incubating four eggs, and we had excellent views of both adults as well as the clutch of eggs they were tending. In addition, we enjoyed spotting scope views of the colony of Great Blue Herons that has been growing on the Common Raven carrying Deer Hair, West Rock, April 9, 2014 small, treed island in Konold’s Pond. Additional bird species rounded out the walk.

Ridgelines, Fall 2014 5 The New Haven Summer Bird Count (SBC) was extremely successful this year. Five birders participated in Area C West Rock Ridge and Hamden: Steve Broker (Cheshire); Gail Cameron (Hamden); Elena Coffey (Marlboro); Laura Lawrence (New Haven); Mary Ann Lewis (Colchester). We tabulated 81 species of birds, making this one of the highest species counts for Area C since NHBC began this summer count in 1993. We spent 23 hours in the field during the two-day period. Highlights included the following: Great Blue Heron (10 adults, 11 nestlings); Wood Duck (7 ad, 22 yg); Black Vulture (2); Osprey (1); Cooper’s Hawk (1); Red- shouldered Hawk (2); Wild Turkey (1 ad, 4 yg); Black- billed Cuckoo (6); Yellow-billed Cuckoo (8); Chimney Swift (24); Ruby-throated Hummingbird (2); Pileated Woodpecker (1); Eastern Wood-Pewee (33); Willow Flycatcher (4); Eastern Phoebe (5); Great Crested Flycatcher (17). Also, Eastern Kingbird (3); Cliff Swallow (1); Common Raven (1); Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (1); Wood Thrush (17); Yellow-throated Vireo (2); Warbling Vireo (12); Red-eyed Vireo (46); Pine Warbler (9); Prairie Warbler (2); Black-and-white Warbler (29); Worm-eating Warbler (22); Ovenbird (52); Scarlet Tanager (13); Rose- breasted Grosbeak (4); Indigo Bunting (16); Field Sparrow (1); Orchard Oriole (2); Baltimore Oriole (8). West Rock Ridge annually produces high numbers of forest-nesting birds for the New Haven SBC, including cuckoos, flycatchers, vireos, wood warblers, tanagers, and grosbeaks. This Peregrine Falcon is the resident tiercel (male) at in New Haven. It was banded in the nest on the Fleetbank Building in downtown Providence, Rhode Island in 2004. The bird was paired with the West Rock Ridge female from 2006 to 2008 and then was displaced by a more aggressive male in April 2008. I was surprised when I found the bird successfully relocated and nesting at East Rock two years later. The West Rock tiercel that moved in in 2008 is still paired with the West Rock female. He was banded in the nest at 55 Water Street, Manhattan in 2006 (color band black/green 54/R).

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Filmed at West Rock

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service filmed a portion of a documentary at West Rock in July. West Rock is one of several wildlife areas of significance that the agency is highlighting in the video that will be published later this fall on its website at http://longislandsoundstudy.net/. Tom Ebersold, WRRPA Volunteer Trails Manager, participated in this video by the Sound Stewardship Initiative, created by Congress in 2006 to help protect the diverse plants and animals that live in or near the Sound. West Rock Ridge is one of 33 inaugural Stewardship areas identified by the Initiative for its exceptional ecological and recreational value, recognized because of the diversity of its flora and fauna, and because of the wilderness opportunities it offers in a densely populated urban area. When the video is published later this fall, we will include a link on our website.

6 Ridgelines, Fall 2014 Three Relocations Highlight Regicides Trail Improvements By Tom Ebersold, Volunteer WRRPA Trails Manager

With mild temperatures and sunny skies, 2014 has been a productive year on the trails at West Rock, allowing the trails crew and myself to complete a couple of wish list projects, as well as keeping up with the usual maintenance needs. The highlight is three short, but much appreciated relocations of the Regicides Trail. The first relocation is slightly north of the West Rock tunnel crossing, the second is by the stone shack midway up Baldwin Drive, and the third is the final approach of the Regicides to the Quinnipiac Trail. As of September 2014, the entire Regicides Trail has been reblazed and pruned. I also found the time to reblaze the Sanford Feeder Trail (from Brooks Road, Bethany, to the north end of Baldwin Drive. The trail needed some minor pruning back. The real work was pulling out and cutting back the numerous invasive plant species along the trail, including Japanese barberry, multi-flora rose, autumn olive and the Asiatic bittersweet vine. Three Trail Relocations In April 2014, I completed the relocation of the trail just north of the West Rock tunnel where the trail formerly followed a gravel road for a short distance. Having trails follow woods roads for only a portion of their length is generally a bad idea because hikers tends to focus on the road and not the blazes, and then miss the turn-off when the trail turns off the woods road. In this particular case, while heading north, the trail made a left onto the woods road by a fenced area for radio transmission equipment and followed that woods road for a few hundred feet. Hikers then had to turn right and vault over a steel guardrail, and then slide down a slippery gravel slope, only to land in a perpetually muddy patch. In the relocation, the trail crosses the woods road by the fenced area and follows a gentle downward slope, paralleling the woods road, and bypasses the muddy area before joining the existing trail shortly before a crossing of Baldwin Drive. The relocation crosses a second woods road that is a grassy path leading to the ventilation shaft tower for the Wilber Cross Parkway tunnels. In September 2014, I completed my third relocation of the Regicides Trail for this year (more on the second one in just a bit). This is the section just north of the stone shack that formerly followed Baldwin Drive for about 100 yards before ducking back into the woods. As a hiker, it is all too easy to get onto a road and miss the turn back into the woods. After checking with Connecticut Forest and Park Association, the West Rock Ridge Park Association, and the state parks, nobody had any idea why the trail went into the road.

Lake Dawson Reservoir in Woodbridge, from an overlook near the Regicides Trail. Ridgelines, Fall 2014 7 The only slight explanation that I received was to allow people on the trail to see and check out the stone shack. The relocation passes within 15 feet of the stone shack, so people will surely pop out onto the road to take a look. If people want to walk the road, the openings at both ends are still there. I took advantage of a natural switchback to make the descent from the hill behind the stone shack down to the next section of trail. I had to cut two dead hemlocks, and trim a few branches, but not much else needed to be done. I lined most of the trail with branches and trees to define the treadway. There are a few spots where I need to rearrange the rocks a bit for better footing. A couple of sections could use some minor benching (cutting into the hillside to create a treadway). Completed in May 2014, the relocation approaching the Quinnipiac Trail accomplishes several goals, including reducing erosion, increasing safety, and offering hikers a better experience. The original trail was built at a time when the thought process was apparently to pick the most difficult, steep path to offer hikers a challenge. The result became a slippery slope of loose rock that was challenging to climb and even more challenging to descend in even the best of conditions. With modern trail design principles, trail builders realize the importance of following the contour lines of the slope as much as possible to create a sustainable trail that will resist erosion. Heading north, the Regicides Trail crosses the Sanford Feeder Trail, and then descends into a saddle as it passes two large glacial erratic boulders. The descent is a slippery clay slope that has been transformed through the construction of about 10 rock steps by the trails crew. I can take credit only for bringing them together and getting out of their way, as I do not have the strength to move rocks weighing 200 pounds or more. I did help out in the next phase, which was to line the trail with rocks as it passes through the saddle and up a steep, but manageable slope. The rocks help define the trail’s path as it can be difficult to discern in this area of open woods. From this point, the trail consists of a series of switchbacks up to the junction of the Quinnipiac Trail. The switchbacks offer generally good footing for both climbing and descending, and use the rock formations as a natural staircase. Polly Buckley, John Rek, Scott Howland, Jim Murphy, and Tom Shillieto stand on As a bonus, hikers can enjoy a the Regicides Trail steps north of the Sanford Feeder Trail junction. westward view to the valley, which they previously did not see on the trail. At the junction with the Quinnipiac Trail, I replaced the former paper signs with new carved wooden signs from the Connecticut Forest and Park Association. CFPA will also provide me with a small kiosk with a map that I will install at the trail junction. I estimate the relocation took about 20 hours of work, and the steps about 40 additional hours of work. I plan to schedule an additional work party in October to complete the step project, but the most important part is done. I also lined the Regicides Trail with stones at the junction with the Sanford Feeder. This grassy area gets quickly overgrown, and since the Regicides Trail crosses the Sanford Feeder at an angle, following the crossing is not always easy. With the stones, the path is clearly defined and the stones prevent the growth of weeds. Regicides Trail Blazing and Pruning I have been working my way along the Regicides Trail, reblazing and pruning back overgrowth, a project I last undertook in 2011. This has been a slow process due to the many tasks along the way. A particularly tough section was between the North Summit Trail (Red-blazed), which descends into Woodbridge, south to the Gold Trail. In this area, the birch trees have been growing like weeds in the absence of shade from the former hemlock trees that were all killed off by the wooly adelgid insect. Others and myself uprooted or cut about 300 of these trees that were crowding the trail, most about one-half inch in diameter. There are hundreds more in their place that are growing along the trail, but not encroaching upon it. Other portions of the trail pass through open areas where we had to drag brush over to better define the trail and keep hikers on a path and not walking all over the place. I estimate that this one-mile section of trail required 25 hours of work

8 Ridgelines, Fall 2014 from me and 13 hours from others. Near several rocky overlooks of the Lake Dawson dam there are bottles and broken glass from when Baldwin Drive was still open to vehicular traffic and these areas were party spots. I cleaned up the glass from one area as best I could and plan to return to clean up the other areas in the colder months when it will be too cold to blaze. Throughout the park in 2014, I estimate we picked up 40 buckets worth of trash, most of it dating from the 1970s. Other trash I removed from the northern end of the park including seven tires, four metal chairs, a child’s bicycle frame, a driveshaft to a car, and metal coils to We are grateful to CFPA for beautiful new trail signs. a car seat. Other projects have focused on cutting back the many invasive plant species at West Rock, including those choking off the Teal Trail near Amryhn Field (the baseball field at the foot of the ridge in Westville), autumn olive shrubs on the Red Trail near Mountain Road, privet at the South Overlook, and Japanese knotweed on Baldwin Drive. Japanese knotweed is a particular concern because it spreads so fast and smothers everything in its path. There is a large and quickly expanding patch of it along Wintergreen Avenue south of the main entrance. This is something the state will have to handle. My goal is to yank it when I find it within the park boundaries. The plant is called Godzilla weed for a reason because it comes right back when you pull it up. I have not tried it, but the young shoots can be cooked and eaten like asparagus. Thanks to the many helpers who have made these improvements possible — in particular, John Rek with his rigging equipment and muscle, and Scott Howland, Tom Shillieto, and Jim Murphy with their muscles made the stone steps possible. Scott and Tom S. have been regulars helping at other tasks, especially pruning back invasive plant species. contributed six students in April as part of its Big Event. The students helped cut back privet and pick up trash at the South Overlook. This area is a perpetual battle against litter, once again supporting the idea that where cars go, litter follows. Other helpers include Tom Parlapiano, Peter Sagnella, Dennis Franco, Tim Hale, Eliof Lofman, Polly Buckley, and Chuck Walters. Wayne Fogg from CFPA guided the process of identifying the Regicides Trail relocation near the Quinnipiac Trail. Other events of note include the following: The state has published an updated map to West Rock, which includes the Teal and Teal-White Trails near Westville, the Red-Dot Trail along Lake Wintergreen, the Gold Trail from Lake Wintergreen to the Regicides Trail, and the switchback section of the Purple Trail and the connection to the Regicides Trail. Be sure to download this map from the state website at www.ct.gov/deep/cwp/view.asp?A=2716&Q=325276 I updated the website I created for the park, revising information about bus routes to West Rock, and adding a page on safety at the park, and wildflowers at the park. On my page, I note that the Regicides and Orange Trails come within about 100 feet of the overlook at Konolds Pond, but do not follow the cliff, and I advise people to be very careful at the overlook itself. The website is located at http://westrocktrails.blogspot.com.

A Hiking Death in the Park

We note with great sadness the death of Samuel Shekman of Woodbridge and Willimantic apparently due to an accident at West Rock Ridge on August 17th . The 20-year-old man appears to have slipped or fallen while hiking in a rocky area at or near the base of the ridge that is north of the state park's twin car tunnels, according to local police. Shekman grew up in the immediate area and moved to Willimantic to attend Eastern CT State University. He had gone for an early evening hike but when he did not return to his parents’ home, the local police were notified. They were assisted in the search by the Woodbridge Fire Dept., Seymour and Hamden police and state police. In a newspaper obituary it was noted that Shekman “lived a full life and had a fuller one still ahead of him. He loved people and was loved by everyone – friends, little kids, adults and peers, He enjoyed playing rugby, kayaking, counseling special needs children, camping, rock concerts and was always ready to lend a helping hand.” We send our deepest condolences to Samuel's family.
