Important Notice from our Sub-District Ranger


FYI - the garbage bin at Silver City was removed prior to this weekend.

There is a construction materials only roll off located at Tar Gap Trailhead this month for folks maintaining their cabins.  I have found several bags of garbage that have been disposed of in the roll off.  I have had to retrieve the bags twice in the last 4 days to dispose of properly in bear proof trash cans.  This is hazardous for me and the wildlife.  I am really disappointed in who has been doing this.  The different bag types and timing is indicating to me that it has been multiple parties.  

I am not here to monitor the roll off 7 days a week to insure that I get the garbage out before the bears discover it.  This concerns me greatly.  Please spread the word that this is unacceptable.

Thank you.
