Houghton Falls Nature Preserve Project

Keeping the crew happy with snacks!

The Town of Bayview, Landmark Conservancy, and Bayfield Area Trails send a BIG THANK YOU to all volunteers who helped with trail work at Houghton Falls Nature Preserve on Saturday November 9th! 

Together, the volunteers laid over 15 yards of new gravel on worn down sections of the trail which further helps direct recreators where to go and prevent the trail from becoming too wide. The Town of Bayview leadership especially appreciated the help to steward this much-loved property!

A special thanks to Washburn residents Brad Dryer and Pete Warren who helped move gravel a bit faster, and to Mike Bunch for providing tasty snacks! Before winter, the Town hopes to finish one small section of boardwalk.  ​

Bob Feyen uses new power wagon to transport boardwalk timbers.

Trail entrance looks like NEW!

No more wet or muddy feet!
