I am considering organizing a trail cleanup for the first time. Any tips/advice on how to go about setting one of these up? Video was great by the way.
Thanks!
The proximity to Easter Sunday did make it difficult to plan. I can’t usually make too many Saturday events because of work.
We had it on the calendar all month and then realized like the week of that Easter was the next day lol. Events are going to be harder for me to make now, kids are starting summer sports that are going to fill up most saturdays and sundays. Might have to play hooky from work one day and try and sneak out during the week haha
We like to sneak off for the occasional Monday run when the park is empty… it’s not too bad lol
Looks like a great adventure and an even better cause!
It was DEFINITELY an adventure!
The 4-Door was winched backwards because it was high centered on the crest. If you watch after the winching, you can see the same location from the other side.
I'm all for the effort and great job by all . . . but how does some of that stuff wind up on private land to which access is controlled? I mean I get casual littering (not that I condone it, just that I can see it happening) by park attendees that scatters/accumulates over time but how does something like a *fridge* get dumped there? That one was a real head scratcher.
I think it was more of a free-for-all there in the time between the it stopped being used for industrial purposes, and when the park started to be come what it is now…
It happens all the time. I've seen what looked like a whole house full of trash, debris and furniture/appliances dumped on creeks next to a bridge out in the country in Texas. My guess is that someone got evicted and the owner didn't want to pay to dispose of it, so a midnight run was made to dump it where I saw it.
