Short Description of Activity
I drove along Devil’s Thumb Road and checked for trash. There are six areas where there are parking lots or a side road where people park. On this occasion I went into three of the parking lots and the areas around them where there was trash. The other three areas did not have obvious trash. In the first parking area, someone had dumped a vehicle radiatior and the box apparently a new one had come in. Both were used for target practice at the bottom of the hill.. There was broken glass in all the parking areas cleaned. Ultimately removed 16 pounds of trash
Reflection/Evaluation
The goal is to keep trash from building up and to inform BLM of the findings after each visit. This goal is being met.
