Trash on the Trails--what did you haul out?

Post by fotogirl53 »

Here is a list of the trash I found, and hauled out of Horton Creek on 6/29:
1 old green Nalgene bottle
1 pair of reading glasses (generic0
1 disposable poncho package
2 cigarette butts
1 foam soda cup and lid
1 piece of foam--maybe from a visor?
multiple pieces of wrappers from granola bars and other food sources

Here is what I saw and did not haul out (shame on me):
1 pair of jeans
1 swimming suit top
1 plastic grocery bag filled with trash
too many pieces of used toilet paper to count

Has anyone else kept track of their "loot"?

Up on the Rim Mostly beer cans old whiskey bottles.

Over the last few years I have been finding many birthday party balloons still inflated.

A few miles up towards Bear Canyon Lake right off the road I was picking up 10's of beer can's and found about 30 lbs of live 22 and 9mm rounds still in the boxes.
