Major limbs came down on the rail trail just a few 100 yards south of the Country Club parking lot.
The Rail Trail south of Country Club has some issues. There are large divots/depressions in the trail from the trees that fell in the June storms and the clean up. These depressions are difficult to see on the trail and are big enough and deep enough to be quite jarring on a bicycle. I imagine a runner or walker could get injured stepping into an unexpected hole as well. There are at least 3 or 4 of these depressions on the Rail Trail. Can the city get these leveled out? Please use a filler or fine gravel that matches the trail, not some large gravel sizes as have been done in the past on the Rail Trail repairs that create other issues.
Someone has smeared what looks and smells like dog feces into both of the water spouts on the drinking fountain. I am not carrying sanitizer to clean it or paper to mark it, but it is clearly a public health hazard.
When hiking the trail, we were passed 4 or 5 times by an individual driving a gas powered open body go-cart. He was doing laps on the trail.
Our Instagram account was tagged in this photo. Appears the drinking fountain may have been tampered with.

Polly Grimshaw Trail, east section, needs a trim, especially the west end near Pete Ellis Dr. Workers should be careful of the large growth of poison hemlock!

Polly grimshaw trail has a lot of overgrowth. Can parks trim it back or have the abutting property owners? Including poison ivy
