Hobbs trails get the all-clear

ROGERS — Thanks to the help of volunteers, the four trails in the Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area have been cleared of downed trees and limbs left in the wake of January's ice storm.
"Our volunteers have been steadfast in the trail cleanup effort. Hobbs suffered more than 100 trees per mile down on our 34miles of trail," Al Knox, trail maintenance supervisor for Hobbs, said in a news release. "This monumental task would not have been completed in as short a time as it took without the assistance of so many wonderful volunteers."
The last trail to be cleared was the War Eagle loop, a 6-mile trail that features an overlook of the War Eagle Creek valley.
