SUMMARY:EMPIRE-SAUK: RATTLESNAKE RIDGE SAND BARRENS BRUSH REMOVAL
DESCRIPTION:Rattlesnake Ridge Sand Barrens Brush Removal\nMonday, November 16 – 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.\nLocation: Rattlesnake Ridge in Arena, WI\n\nWe will be cutting and treating small, multi-stemmed, invasive black oak on the barrens. It’s a small area with dense cover, so this will be on-your-knees work with loppers.\nThe 40-acre sand barrens is a unique ecosystem of the lower terraces of the Wisconsin River valley. Eighty-foot depth of sand creates habitat for dry prairie plants, including Pennsylvania sedge, June grass, lupine, sand puccoon, butterfly weed, goat’s rue, and prickly pear; redheaded woodpeckers (and all the others!), whippoorwills, and grassland sparrows.\nWHAT TO BRING:\nLoppers and chemical provided, but your favorite tools are welcome. Bring drinking water and gloves appropriate for chemical bottle handling. Safety glasses/ knee pads suggested. Snacks in the field will be provided!\nWORK PARTY LEADER:\nSue Steinmann (ssteinmann6@gmail.com ( mailto:ssteinmann6@gmail.com )) or (h) 608-753-2332 (landline, no texts). Please contact Sue the day before as this work party is weather dependent.\nDIRECTIONS:\n7046 Reimann Rd., Arena. Take Hwy 14 to Arena; go south on Reimann at Arena Cheese Store (big mouse); go right onto gravel lane at end of road; go left at fork in the lane; continue 1/3-mile through woods to parking area at end of drive.
