Always appreciate your outlook, Lee. lol We've been posting pics of trash for years, mostly @@SAND~~SNAKE, but a few others have too. It is somewhat effective but those that leave trash behind aren't involved with the dunes like most of us on DDR. They don't give a crap. They figure someone else will pick up after them. It happens everywhere.

If everyone on this site packs out what they bring AND spend just 15 minutes a trip picking up what's close it would add up. maybe peer pressure on those that litter would help like a litter bug page with pics of the litter bugs and/or vehicles, peer pressure is a powerful deterrent, I saw a Discovery segment where there was stuff left out for the taking but a big video monitor showing the people close and nobody would take anything. It's pretty sad when people can bring beer and sodas out but can't take the empty, light weight and smashed, small volume containers out. And it's better to leave aluminum cans in a pile that in the fire, they don't burn, they melt and then those that would pick them up for the recycling value don't as the recyclers won't accept them. Fireworks are ooooh and aaaah until you see what's left in and on the dunes. Is expecting people to just take out what they bring in expecting too much? Lee

Went out this past weekend. You guys did a great job cleaning up. So my group of fellow duners thank you. We were unable to attend the event, however did what we could on our own trip. Maybe next year it could be a two day event?
