Tellico Cleanup 3/10/2007

The Official Tellico Trail Cleanup was March 10, 2007. There were a LOT of people there, Place was packed in the campgrounds, but we really didnt see THAT many people on the trails. I didn't see any other 'Yota groups there, so I dont know if any of you attended. I went with the GA and TN chapters of TTORA - had a good bunch of guys, and a great day cleaning up the trails and surronding areas, we found everything from run of the mill trash, to old wiskey stills, a kitchen sink, and even an old Ford Pickup Bed down on lower slickrock.

Okay guys....
I ended up with 142 pictures, and 13 videos.
All of them may not be worth anything....but for those who want to look, here they are:

Here are some of my fave teasers...

First up, Brad - I don't know how this one happened, but I like it. a lot.


Ed, showing up how much he can still stuff with those 36's


A New Avatar for Brad?


And last but CERTAINLY not least, Chris, making the ledge at Fains Ford look easy in his 84!


For all these and many, MANY more, check out the photobucket link above.
Thanks guys!

Nice pics, love the video. Do you have any close ups of the flat deck on the 84? I'm ripping my box off mine and looking for plans to mimic.

Man, Brian, thats cold...

just to prove it, heres the trash:

here are several full bags in Greg's truck...

Here is a bag in Daniels truck, its barely peeking, take a look...

heres the bed we found at slickrock...


Here we are hauling bags ALL the way back up slickrock - - LONG way, and you wouldnt beleive how heavy they were, we found floor panels, windows, windshields, all sorts of stuff...

And a little video of Ed cruising along with his personal trash collection...

Just making sure you were "working" and not just "wheeling".

When I was in OH, we did something similar at Wellsville. I swear we could have built a rig from all the trash. Some things you could see how they got there - stuff like trim or something that would get ripped off and the driver might not notice, but other things that they HAD to notice - wheels, axles, mufflers, body panels, etc.

THANK YOU for doing that...just don't understand the mindset of those that toss their stuff for others to see and pickup
I was pickup last weekend found soda cans that date from the 70's ?
