A popular Northeast Georgia outdoor recreation site is back open to the public following a weekend work party that whipped it back into shape.
Yonah Preserve Trails reopened to the public on Sunday, Nov. 22. The trails were closed nearly a month ago after Tropical Storm Zeta left them littered with downed trees and debris.
White County staff and dozens of volunteers, including those from the Southern Off-Road Bicycle Association, cleaned up the site.
Yonah Preserve Trail Project coordinator Clark Neal took to social media to thank the 30 volunteers who showed up to work on Saturday. He also thanked the county for getting the trails “open as quickly as we told them it was safe to do so.”
