Small Trash (Bears at work!) Clean-up at Upper Hickory Nut Gorge Trailhead

Join us as we partner with Henderson County in assisting County staff with litter clean up around the parking lot of the Upper Hickory Nut Gorge trailhead. A bear accessed the dumpster in the parking lot and, doing what bears do, made quite a mess of garbage in the area. There is likely about 10 large trash bags worth of litter to pick up.

We will be meeting in the parking lot for the Upper Hickory Nut Gorge trailhead. County staff will be on site early to set up and will provide trash bags, safety vests, gloves, and trash grabbers. We recommend volunteers wear long sleeves, long pants, close-toed shoes, and sun protection as needed.
