Title: Turkey Mountain Master Plan
Post by: SXSW on November 15, 2019, 11:32:00 AM
As an avid user of Turkey Mountain I think this is a great plan for the future, especially expanding the trails to the south and west.

A pedestrian bridge to connect to Johnson Park is definitely a bold idea to better connect the wilderness area to the east bank trails.

Most everyone on the TUWC board was surprised with the addition of Bales Park to the land inventory.  This was not part of our ask though the grasslands at Bales Park were cited numerous times.  We knew about the east bank connector a few weeks back.  There's little not to like about this.  Closing off 61st St. and returning it to woods would be an incredible development.  I also like that Malcolm McCollam's ask for the bike park has made it into the plan as well.
