The "Low Water" Conspiracy

[TubeDude]

[cool]There will always be "slob sportsmen". It's good to care enough about the esthetics (and safety) of our recreational areas that we will remove the litter left behind by slobs. In California, I worked with some scouts and explorers who made one or two cleanup hikes into the Sierras every summer. We arranged with pack-in outfitters to drop off bundles of burlap bags at specified camp areas. Then the scouts would hike in and burn what was burnable and put the rest in the bags for the horses to carry out the next time they went out after dropping off extended stay campers. You would be amazed at how much junk...and the kind of junk...that is left behind by backpackers.

I have a philosophy. IF ALL THOSE WHO LITTER OUR FISHING SPOTS WERE LAID OUT END TO END...WE'D BE BETTER OFF. (sorry. an old attorney joke).
