I've never been out to the Knolls so when I heard about the clean-up I decided to go help and check it out. What a DUMP! Anyone who's ever been there knows what i'm talkin about. I cant even begin to describe how much trash is there. There was probably 40 - 50 people there helping with the clean-up and i'm guessing there was about 2000 pounds of trash removed. Thats right 2000[mad]. It's nice to see there's people that do care what our land looks like as opposed to those who obviously dont give a crap. The amount of trash scattererd around was(is) crazy. Not just wrappers and cans but socks, underwear, glass, fishing line, used toilet paper and TONS of used diapers. I heard at least 4 people say they picked up 20 - 30 diapers each. I probably did about the same. So if your one of those lazy ass people that cant put that crap in the trash then stay off our recreation land. From the type of trash I saw it's clear there's a specific group of individuals that don't give a crap. We live a beautiful state with awesome outdoor activities at our fingertips, its to bad to see this kind of attitude people have. I hope if you see people leaving trash behind I hope you will call them out on it. My guess is the majority of the people fishing over there dont have a licence and have to worry about be asked to show one. Maybe the presence of some officers will help detour these type of people?
