this place is about 5 miles from my cabin property, I haven't been up to the reservior for a couple years. It's a shame people do that crap.

I admit to my ignorance here being that I don't drink, but why is that beer drinkers in general don't pick up their trash? Granted you get the occasional mtn dew can and such, but by and large the majority of the trash you see out there is beer cans/bottles. I've always found that to be curious.

I don't find it curious, I find it unacceptable... I don't smoke, and watch folks flip ciggy butts all over the place. Why?

its likely cause the dirtbags are worried about getting an open container ticket...so they toss it out, they should stay home or at camp and drink and then they wouldnt have anything to worry about.
 
i swear when i go out offroading, i always take out what i take in... no matter what. when i go to clean my truck after the trips i am always cleaning up my mess out my truck. well i own a suv, i bought the suv for a reason to wheel in plus there was extra space in the back to throw my trash when i am out wheeling.
i think the reason this placed was trashed so bad is the forest service dont like to go up that road that much, the first part you have to cross threw a river then then nex lil ride is kinda ruff..
