I wish I could say that I’m shocked, or even surprised. But unfortunately my experience confirms that most Americans do not have a land ethic, or frankly a basic feeling of any personal responsibility. It is of course made worse when they know they will not be held accountable.🤬

We were able to take the giant pile of broken sleds, but not the trash near the bathrooms. My dad raised me to always leave our public lands better than we found them. I have seen lots of random dumping in my day, but to see hundreds of people, with kids, behave like this was 😭.

I am not aware of any formal, organized volunteer efforts on the Lassen NF that are happening right now. I'll be making another trip to this site to remove trash on Thursday.
