When out in the forest or dessert I seem to pick up a lot of
trash. I bet you all do the same. If you don't shame on you!
I am going to start posting in my logs just how much trash I picked up on my
geocaching adventures into the great out doors. I bet if others do
this we will start to get a better name for ourselves. Today I was in
the Migus Mtn area and picked up 1 plastic shopping bag of trash and hauled it
out. I seen about 15 other people in the 9 or 10 miles of dirt roads
that I tooled around on today. If every one of those people where
geocachers and picked up 1 bag of trash, could you imagine how nice the forest
would be?
This is just a thought that could raise every ones karma.
Not to mention how much it would help the future of geocaching. If a
forest official or anyone for that matter where to visit the site and see what
geocachers are doing to help then I feel we would have more support.
The forest service also has an Adopt A Site program that I thought
some of us could get involved in. I don't know all the rules to it but
it sounds like a good way to meet other geocachers and get good
publicity. If anyone is interested please check with your local forest
officials to get further info. I think it would make a neat geocachers
rendezvous.
Thanks
