A view looking up a big tree. The trunk isn't visible but it's over three feet in diameter and is utterly covered with ivy growth.

A view of the same tree from the base showing ivy "trunks" winding down the tree and then are cut out. Many different "branches" of ivy trunk are visible all separately cut out leaving a gap.

On Saturday, a group of folks trimmed out the "trunks" of English Ivy growing on trees next to a side path off the I-90 trail. Ivy can kill a tree if allowed to grow too much. The biggest tree had multiple "trunks" of woody entwined material to remove. #Seattle

The weather is looking great for this fix tomorrow! We'll fix this curve of the Burke-Gilman trail just east of Stone Way which is a recurring problem spot for overgrown blackberry bushes creating a choke point for all trail users

Thank you to everyone who came out to help clean the Union Street protected bike lane in Seattle's Central District on Sunday! The bike lanes are a lot safer to travel in. Photos from Shannon (organizer of this cleanup) #pnw

We also (not pictured) cleared some drainage ditches next to the trail's low spot, so hopefully the trail won't flood for 2 months this year!

Seattle Street Fixers (@SeattleStreetFixers@social.ridetrans.it) Attached: 4 images @rachael Two of us spent an hour clearing a small but hazardous section of leaves on their way to mush. I think maybe someone cleared some of this recently!

A thing I started doing some years ago with comrades in south Seattle was cleaning up sidewalks and bike lanes -- overgrown vegetation, piles of leaves, snow. I do it less often now due to health issues but I did some today and I'm exhausted. Pictures over here: social.ridetrans.it/@SeattleStre...
