Mile 227 Report
Cape Foulweather, Rocky Creek
March 21, 2023
Overall, everything seems to be stable except where human activity, around fire ring below quarry (PT6), is occurring.
Report Details
Overall, everything seems to be stable except where human activity, around fire ring below quarry (PT6), is occurring. The area is surprisingly free of litter. One beer can and a Ziplock bag near a fire ring was all I observed. Existing trails showed a fair amount of use but I noticed no new trails. The existing treehouse on the South end of the mile (along the cliffs below the quarry) appears to be used often and more floats and ropes are affixed to the trees. The trail to it is well used. One car sitting at the turnout North of Ben Jones bridge. Weather was "Foul" and I was the only fool willing to venture out into it.
