There are pathways of Japanese stilt grass leading up the mountain from the lower acreage to the 500-Year Forest. Steve and Maxine assume the stilt grass seed is being transported into the Forest along the footpaths by both wildlife and hikers. They plan in the spring to experiment with a flame weeder to knock back stilt grass along the roadways and paths leading into the Forest. At the same time they plan to contract with a local landscaping service to hand pull stilt grass during June and August in specified areas in our Forest.
