Cleanup is done!

Here is a cleanup report from one of the INFO crew folks who was there until the end. I would love to hear other perspectives as well.

Some final Clean Up photos.....the Clean Up Crew rolls out in the morning.
The Meadow photos are mostly of Boogie pit and Dinner Circle area and Meadow trails. Ferns now waist high and shoulder high in most areas. Dragonflies gone but Butterflies are here.
Wild Turkey back and no bear problems with digging our compost.
Unfortunately lots of Clean Up crew tested positive for lymes.
The Crew did great with 12 hour+ work days and lots of tick problems.
Peace and Blessings from some of our Clean Up gang.
All looks great and FS loved it.
I'm in Iron river for the Blueberry Festival before I hit the scenic roadway.
Peace and Love from the hard kicking Crew.

Another person's feedback on cleanup

Cleanup crew's final night in the woods was last night.
Cleanup went very smooth with little complications.
We planned a few hundred trees and seeded dozens of acres and trails.
Locals have been coming by and praising the good job we have been doing as well.

And here's some of the cleanup photos. Sites aren't labeled so you'll have to guess which spot in the gathering is in the photo. (Click on photo to enlarge).

You do not want to go to Kangaroo Court However, these tickets are not the type of citation you would probably receive for any of these issues in your hometown. These are Federal mandatory court appearance tickets. There will be special cour
