Forest Janitors

This camp was left abandoned just past the end of the pavement in Hobble Creek canyon. This site appears to draw rowdy groups. All signs in the area are shot up, numerous fire rings are present, all kinds of trash was scattered about, and the trees showed heavy abuse. In order to fit this couch into our truck, we first had to saw it in half. Our crew did a thorough job of cleaning up the site to make it usable for the next group.

We recovered this neat 1950's Kelvinator refrigerator in Mapleton Canyon.

In addition to large items like this couch and fridge, we are dedicated to picking up trash such as aluminum cans. We will recycle them at the end of the season. Many Forest users are dedicated to picking up trash on their outings. How many of these people will it take to offset the number who leave the trash behind?
