Hello trail enthusiasts. Here are the details on next weekend’s trail work day at Otter Creek,

KyMBA and the KY Department of Fish and Wildlife invite you to the first of several Mountain Bike/Hike trail work days at Otter Creek Outdoor Recreation Area. The park closure and ice storm has taken their toll. However, with some good old hard work we can have most of the trails open again by late Spring/early Summer. We have downed trees to cut through, debris to clean up, some erosion control work and paint and stencils to mark the trail corridor.

When: Saturday, February 26th at 8:30 am SHARP! The park gate cannot be left open. We will be working as long as possible so bring a lunch if you want to stay all day.

What to Bring: Work gloves, sturdy shoes, water (bottled or in a camelback), lunch, loppers/trimmers , chainsaws with PPE and lots of energy.

Do not to Bring: Your Bike, the trails need much more TLC before they can be ridden.
