This trail shows a good number of living and Felled trees with Bug Damage. I did get to take pictures of and record several separate tree sites. Several trees were already felled and had prevalent small exit holes (possibly EAB) they had been marked with orange and blue hashes. The living trees showed a variety of hole sizes and shapes. A rather artistic bore track was noticed a a couple trees where the borer had made several whirling tracks and the bark had fallen off. I will post the pictures for I.D. A felled tree near the Trail head had some very round, pencil sized exit holes where the bark had been removed.
