Adopted Trail Cleanup Saturday
morning, 11/21/2009
It doesn't have quite the reputation of the La Luz Trail, but ARR has
also adopted a very useful stretch of bike/pedestrian trail that starts
across the street from the Unser-and-Western-Trails entrance to
Petroglyphs National Monument and heads north for about a mile to
Dellyne. The next in our semiannual series of trail cleanups will start
at 8:30 AM Saturday morning, 11/21/2009 (the Saturday before
Thanksgiving). We'll meet at the bend where Atrisco headed north
becomes Legends headed east, which seems to be a convenient place for
parking our cars (for those of us who dont walk or jog over) while we
walk the trail, transferring accumulated litter to trash bags.
This gives you the choice of ending your
early-morning workout at the meeting place and using litter collection
as a cooldown activity or starting your late-morning jog in the
pleasant Petroglyphs area after having contributed your efforts on
behalf of the environment and your club. (There may even be a third
option in there somewhere.)
See y'all Saturday the 21st of November.

of the cleanup)
P.S. To reach the meeting place take Coors Blvd. to
just before (if headed south) or just after (if headed north) St. Pius
X High School, turn west on Western Trails, then north on Atrisco Drive
NW until it begins to turn to the east. (This is also the point at
which it comes very close to Unser Blvd.) Park along the street close
to the bend.
