April Outing Reports
Jawbone Canyon (Moose Anderson Days)
We arrived at Jawbone Station just in time to complete the registration papers before the lining up to begin cleaning up Jawbone Canyon. Rick fisher had already registered. We went and began picking up trash and junk left behind from shooters and campers. After a bit Terry Work arrived, since Terry and I had trucks we began collecting large items, Terry found this former shooting target water heater, by 2:00 both Terry's truck and mine were full. As it has been at every cleanup we collected more trash than the 40 yard bin could handle. Then it was a TRI-TIP lunch, and another Moose Anderson days cleanup that was a great success.
