We were down at Mill creek recently.Sad story from Plaskett when I was there last month. Apparently people are afraid to use the bathrooms, so a handful of campers have been shitting/peeing in buckets, but then taking the buckets into the bathrooms and dumping them in the toilets. Instant overflow and clogging. The poor camp hosts shouldn't have to deal with that. And it renders the bathrooms inoperable for everybody else until it's cleaned. Would not be surprised if it's also people camping up the fire roads where there aren't any bathrooms and then using it as a dump site. It really is sad to see how packed it has become. Still looking forward to the 9th annual New Years campout my friends and I have been partaking in. Last year was the first year out of all of them that we didn't surf. The weather was great, but it was too damn big!
The trash cans/restrooms are serviced by the camp hosts as part of their contract. People were coming down from Prewitt Ridge, pulling up down there and just dropping huge bags of trash off. A huge, festering pile by noon on a Sunday. And at least those were the ones who actually had the courtesy to pack their trash out.
