Crooked River Cleanup and Lunch
Saturday, 15 April 2023 Big Bend Campground at 10:00 AM
Apologies, I left out the "allow guests" on the original announcement. If you would like to add a guest, click on your registration and add them now.
Bring your work gloves and walking shoes to the Crooked River cleanup. Big Bend is the first campground just below the Bowman Dam.
This is our springtime cleanup event from Bowman Dam downstream along the seven-mile Chimney Rock segment of the Lower Crooked Wild and Scenic River. With a good volunteer turnout, we will pick up litter from the river to along the highway, including all campground and picnic areas.
After the litter pickup, lunch will be provided by COF back at Big Bend. Please RSVP so we bring enough hot dogs, hamburgers and drinking water. Let me know if you require a vegetarian meal. Terri Grimm has promised her popular Dutch Oven desert following lunch.
We were snowed out of the November 2022 cleanup so there may be more litter than usual. Due to water levels, I have avoided the Crooked since last April’s cleanup so I cannot provide a water or fishing report. If you plan to fish afterwards, I recommend you check your favorite local fly shop’s fishing report.
