Late summer ground wasps have been terrorizing hikers, bikers and equestrians all over the Mother Lode and Sierra this year. There is little we can do but keep out of their way, mark the nests and tell other trail users about their locations. This year, Gold Country Trails Council has decided to do more after many of their members have been stung over the past two weeks.
A HUGE THANKS to Gold Country Trails Council and their members who have been humanely eliminating the ground wasps on the trails they maintain along the Highway 20 corridor of the Tahoe National Forest above Nevada City. This includes the areas around Skillman Horse Camp, the Gold Country Equestrian Staging Area, the Pioneer, Hallelujah, Towle Mill and several other trails in that area.
For orientation on the map here, the red dot is the Skillman Horse Camp.
They are busy trying to keep ahead of this year's bumper crop of ground wasps. If you would like to donate to their wonderful nonprofit organization that cares for over 100 miles of trails and three horse camps, go to their website www.GoldCountryTrailsCouncil.org
THANK YOU, GCTC!
