Since the trails are vital to the visitor experience, maintaining access along these paths is a high priority. During each treatment year, sections of the trail with high densities of common reed and other tall, non-native vegetation should be treated with a high-volume spray on either side of the trails. Treatment should occur within a 10- foot path on each side to more easily allow for mowing activities along the trails.
