I was amazed when I hiked a popular trail in the White Mountains last fall. So much trash. And I've been seeing reports that it's much worse now.

Man, I hope that’s not the case but I’ve been reading some bad narratives.

On our most recent trip, we saw many more signs saying "Pack it out", due to newbies, surging demand and shrinking staff.

It's good policy anyhow to leave the place cleaner than you found it. Our trash was thrown away at home.

They throw trash walking down their own street, why would they give it a second thought in the woods?

I'm guessing the calf-catcher on the front is cosmetic only.

Maybe, but it was a time when calves on the road were a real possibility.

That point is quite fair. But it doesn't look like it'd do the job though.

Quite right, it's a gesture, may even be wind chimes for all I know.
Could be an early Tesla, that's an electric station.
