Uhwarrie opening weekend 2009

blazinchuck Wrote:well, I hate to drag this down but man...this sucks! I just got word from my buddy...and he was pretty upset over the conditions of the trails and bath house. I know groups have been working on the trails over the winter. But, he said they have collected enough trash to fill a regular kitchen trash bag today(monday)...said litter was everywhere. Couldn't take a shower yesterday cause the bath house was a complete mess. Found a condom wrapper,wet & muddy socks left, muddy wash clothes,dozen muddy bars of soap, tissue paper all over the floor and toilets!!!! He's gonna start a thread on NC4x4 when he gets back to tell his side of things. But, for his family to have to see this and ask him about the kind of trash they saw is awful. He said this morning the bath house was cleaned to a T! then when they got back around lunch things started looking bad again, then when they came back for good...it was almost the same as Sun. night. This is a shame, and the worst part is....it's mainly the wheelers doing this. These are the folks that sleep on the trails and come by to use the showers, the wheelers staying at arrowhead, and even the hunters when they are there. We dont need this to turn into some other closure over something as simple as picking up after yourself. That just shows you that folks walk away thinking...."huh, someone else will clean it" and that is true...but do they need to clean that much??? Should anyone have to pick up a condom wrapper?? I'm just letting off some steam, but this ultimately falls on us the wheelers. All I can ask, is that...if you are on this forum(and in this group) you conduct yourself as such and be thoughtful of those things mentioned here. I like URE and Arrowhead! I would hate to lose this place!

Chuck,
Hate to call people out but the Zuki guys were at it Sunday in the bath house, same old song and dance plenty of people drinking along the trails and trashing the area. I for one believe in having a good time but also being responsible. An individual rolled his quad in front of me and guess what... you guessed it beer cans flew out from his ATV. Janet bless her heart was doing her best, she stopped by the site and informed me that a new LEA officer was working the area and he is a stickler for the rules. No parking outside the paved areas, NO NO alcohol within the camp sites, he is on the prowl for RED SOLO plastic cups. Janet spoke about her willingness to see past responsible adults, and stated she is currently working ("training" her words) the New guy. As for the Zuk folks I spent over an hour between the first and second ledge of Daniel waiting on them to clear the trail they just blew by and stopped in the trail, some guy busted his rigg and all they cared about was their inherit right to do whatever they pleased. When my son asked if they would move one rig so we could get by the response was "if you can't get by than it's your problem" so my son said "well body damage is your problem". The guy who owned the rigg (the motorcycle engine Zuki) came over and apologized. Lots of folks out this past weekend, but ya I have to agree we MUST police ourselves or find a new hobby.
