Notice anything new around here? Geneva Hannibal ‘26 and Nat Ward ‘26 spent the spring and summer walking the Arb and designing our new trail maps using GIS! Special thanks to the Rotary Club of Kalamazoo, who provided grant support for this project. Hike on! 🥾

Fall red and oranges are mixing with the evergreens, showing off a beautiful mosaic of October colors. River Sypert ‘30 took these photos during the Arboretum Stewardship Practicum today, where students earn a PE credit learning about trail maintenance, native and invasive plants, and more. How lucky are we! 🍁

Not-So-Mag is now not-so-stumpy! Lots of time and effort went into clearing this trail and it’s crazy looking back at pictures from May 2026 to see what the storm dealt us. We kind of miss our stump pile trail borders, but it’s also great to finish this project. Hike on! 🙅‍♀️🪵
