RE: [Az-Geocaching] cache for trash

I spent the day yesterday (Saturday) puttin' around in the Jeep on Tonto
Forest land and collected half a bag of litter (I use the 55 gallon drum
size bags) and an old tire! I saw some great country and got some exercise
by jumping in and out of my CJ5! I've come to the conclusion the litterbugs
prefer "BUD Light"!!!

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] cache for trash

    When out in the forest or dessert I seem to pick up a lot of trash.  I
bet you all do the same.  If you don't shame on you!  I am going to start
posting in my logs just how much trash I picked up on my geocaching
adventures into the great out doors.   I bet if others do this we will start
to get a better name for ourselves.  Today I was in the Migus Mtn area and
picked up 1 plastic shopping bag of trash and hauled it out.  I seen about
15 other people in the 9 or 10 miles of dirt roads that I tooled around on
today.  If every one of those people where geocachers and picked up 1 bag of
trash, could you imagine how nice the forest would be?

    This is just a thought that could raise every ones karma.  Not to
mention how much it would help the future of geocaching.  If a forest
official or anyone for that matter where to visit the site and see what
geocachers are doing to help then I feel we would have more support.

    The forest service also has an Adopt A Site program that I thought some
of us could get involved in.  I don't know all the rules to it but it sounds
like a good way to meet other geocachers and get good publicity.  If anyone
is interested please check with your local forest officials to get further
info.  I think it would make a neat geocachers rendezvous.

     Thanks
