A Wicked Storm

On Thursday, February 25, the winds flew through Essex County with a vengeance, knocking trees across trails, wires across roads and water everywhere.  Under ECTA’s trail maintenance system, our Trail Stewards and members are reporting on trails that have been closed off, and we will be out there clearing them.  Click on Trail Stewards to see a list and get their contact info so we can get our trails cleared as soon as possible.

Our Goals

To maintain and promote the responsible use of the land and trails.

To promote good will and serve as liaison between the trail users and landowners.

To provide organized support for the preservation of open land.

Thank a landowner today. They make it possible.
