Fourth Moon: Don’t Blame Bikers For Canfield Mess
Having just now read your article about litter on Canfield Mt., I know you think that's old news and "who cares", but, I couldn't just let it be. I think your "Berry Pickers" are guilty of "Manufacturing Dissent". First, what berries can you pick in November? Second, why do they blame motorcycle riders for the trash at the trailhead? Every year for as long as I can remember, a motorcycle club cleans up the trailhead and hauls off tons of trash. The sheriff's dept. or the Forest Svc. could probably let you know that most of that is from partying teens that use the site after dark. Third, the trails were made for and paid for by the motorcyclists purchasing their off road stickers each year (by the way, very little of this money is used for that purpose, most is funneled off into the general fund).
