Buckeye Trail's St. Marys Section
BUCKEYE TRAIL ASSOCIATION Trailblazer FOUNDED 1959 FALL 2012 VOLUME 45 NO. 3 Buckeye Trail’s St. Marys Section— A Better Trail Every Day NEW OFF-ROAD SECTION OF TRAIL OPENED Another piece of St. Marys is now open. A new 0.2-mile off-road section is hikeable now that the fences have been removed. The BTA and ODNR worked together to produce a better trail for everybody. If you’d like to hike this new section of Buckeye Trail, the coordinates are N40°14.167, W084°14.196. Access it by walking from Lockington Reserve parking lot. Go north on the Trail into the woods for about 1 mile and turn around at Stangel Rd. Preston Bartlett Preston STORMS HIT THE SECTION HARD Severe storms felled many trees in the St. Marys section this summer. According to St. Marys Section Supervisor Preston Bartlett, volun- teer adopters worked hard to get it reopened. 67.3% of the Buckeye Trail in here is along the Miami-Erie Canal, and fallen trees are common, but this was excessive. Counter that with a lot of generous people, a few chainsaws and a few days, and the the job gets done. IN THIS ISSUE...
