First-time visitor to this conservation area. So speaking as a first-time visitor, I would suggest adding numbers on the guide posts to corresponding numbers on an updated trail map. Other conservation areas have numbers on the guide posts that correspond to the trail map (Glacial, Pleasant Valley).
