Joffre Lakes has become a wilderness garbage dump

Hits: 1689
Apparently the concept of "Leave no Trace" hiking is a message that is often forgotten. It is sad to think that the main trail to Joffre Lakes has become a wilderness garbage dump.
Trails, Parks, Wilderness Areas and Rec Sites do not clean up themselves, and the wilderness experience of those who would visit an area after you have come and gone is just as important as your experience in the here and now.
A special thank you to all the volunteers out there maintaining and cleaning up our trails and wilderness areas. They are the unsung and oftentimes invisible heroes.
