Thank you to all who supported this cleanup in both funding and in-person support. A lot of work was done to remove vandalism in the caves, including along the trails outside of the caves too. Trash was cleaned up and hauled out and the trails were cleared of downed trees. A lot of heart went into this cleanup with everyone involved. We had people from all over involved in this weekend’s project.
Special thanks, but not limited to:
Western Cave Conservancy, Bureau of Reclamation, Calaveras County Sheriff’s Department, Mother Lode Grotto, Shascade Caving Society, Stanislaus Speleological Association, San Francisco Bay Chapter, Shasta Area Grotto, Oregon Grotto, Oregon High Desert Grotto, San Joaquin Valley Grotto, Boy Scouts of America, Teichert Foundation and Gold Country Adventure and Exploration members. A solid turnout of volunteers participated in the event as well. All plans came together and NB’s beauty has been restored.
Side note: I spent about an hour looking through the caves this morning and I found zero graffiti within. Everyone did an outstanding job!
