Just returned home yesterday from our 4th and most successful cleanup so far this year and left the area with 72 less lbs of litter than we found it with ! Our record for this year so far ! But it was the hottest weather we’ve experienced so far this year and the river flow was the lowest so far too !

We’re getting ready to leave tomorrow for our Aug. visit , cleanups and wild trout monitoring ! Woo hoo!

So far we have site 37 and maybe site 89 in Sheep Creek Campground

Just now sharing some of the pics I took of another highly successful trip to the wild and scenic / wild trout stream in Kings Canyon!! I caught and released 9 wild brown and rainbow trout on my way out of the canyon on Sunday in 2 hrs, and we contributed 5 wild trout to the NPS Dragon Fly research study on Thursday.

One fly fisherman reported catching about 20 fish per day and the largest fish one of our volunteers (Chris Macias) caught was 16.5 in Wild Brown trout! I haven’t received the pic he took of that beauty yet…

Ok yeah, 5 volunteers and a new NPS staffer picked up a total of 26 lbs of trash and 3 lbs of recyclables over 5 days!
