A New Facebook Campaign
I recently started a new Facebook page for Protect Our Wildlife and Pets, an ad hoc coalition formed to address…
The land at the base of Buttermilk Falls in High Mountain off Scioto Drive was looking a little scruffy — overgrown with weeds, and branches and logs strewn everywhere. Not to mention the slight drainage problem.
Thanks to a phalanx of scouts from Troop 104 in Wayne, the area below the falls got an extreme makeover on Sunday — including strengthening the rocks on the south side of the falls so that the water flows where it should, into a culvert, instead of onto the trail.
Thanks, Troop 104! What terrific group of young men. (And thanks to Troop 104's Richie Neurouter and the NYNJ Trail Conference's Chris Connolly for setting this up.)
