Brief description of the trash site

Beautiful site along the Millers River with lots of foot trails branching out to the river upstream and downstream from the parking area. 2021 it has light litter -- a few bags with lots of recyclables. There is always lots of toilet paper in the bushes at MassDOT parking pull-offs, bring a shovel to bury or leave in place if you prefer. There are also condoms on this site so it has been marked for age 12 or older. Also bring a broom to sweep cigarette butts from the parking area.
