Riley's Human
Just went up MET to the Silverfork road for a quick short trip to see how the dog would do outdoors and camping. Not much snow up to the Silverfork turnoff but shortly after there was a good patch that I wasn't sure I wanted to test. I let the dog out in to the snow. After a quick wth he decided he really likes snow (mostly ice now, he'd probably really flip for some nice powder).
While I was letting him run a truck came up with a very helpful gentleman. Told me this was the worst of it right here. We chatted for half and hour and when I mentioned I was going to overnight he told me to check out a hundred yards before the 11 mile marker. A nice spot right on the river where he'd just cleaned the fire pit and cut a bunch of firewood. I took him up especially as my usual spot isn't accessible quite yet. Its a great spot and immaculate, Not a bit of trash.
Always handy to have a lodgepole pine come down right in camp. The thunderstorms did roll through, rained for about two hours. A couple thunder boomers right on top of us, enough to rock the truck, the dog didn't care much those. It took some work but I was still able to get the fire going. Scares me how low the heavy fuel moisture must be.
Watched a movie (wolverine) that I can't recommend. My laptop claimed it had four hours of juice prior to watching but just as it was ending I got a message it was about to shut down for lack of power. Good to know.
Even though the ENF has lifted seasonal restrictions they haven't opened the locked gates yet so only a few people were around. The only other vehicles I saw were parked at the Caples creek hiking trail. We walked for a few hours, up and down the road, nice not having to worry about traffic until I decided it was time to go. Hey how bout driving down to where the river crosses the road. I kind of wish I hadn't. Some things you really don't want to see. This was the worst ever I've run across.
It was even worse than the photo makes it look. Scattered over a wide area. Diapers and all. Kind of surprising though was no signs of alcohol. Just sober scumbags teaching kids how to trash the environment. About an hour later.
I had most of it cleaned up.
Sad you even need to post these kinds of signs, I guess people can't read.
I really hope Karma works for those people. I'm thankful they weren't still there. I would have gone ballistic.
Anyway, the dog is go for camping. Hopefully he can meet bob and callie and the others soon. He wasn't perfect but he is only five months old. I was happy he didn't roam too far before checking to see if I was coming. I can't leave him behind even for a few though or he begins to cry. He won't be making the rally.
