Nahatlatch Rebirth: Site Cleanup

We’re starting on site cleanup and mitigation in preparation for rebuilding!

First steps will involve picking up the broken/melted glass, metal scrap, charred wood, and garbage around the site (there’s a lot that was hidden by the bushes beside the tower).

If we have the people and equipment we may work on brushing around the area to keep it clear as well.

Meet at the tower for 11:00 AM on October 11.

Important: Google Maps directions to the site have historically been inaccurate and are currently not working at all. Please follow the directions from RSTBC. We’re told that the ranch put up a gate to stop logging traffic from rushing through, and now the logging company is cutting a new road bypassing the ranch, so directions may be updated later.

Those wishing to convoy up can meet Cameron at the Hope Starbucks at 8:00 AM.

We’ll need pickups and trailers for hauling out the trash. Garbage bags and some tools will be provided, but people should also bring their own shovels, pickers, power landscaping tools (weedeaters, etc.) and so on.

Limited camping is available on-site for those wishing to go up the day before or stay afterward.

Those hauling the debris out can take it to their local landfill/transfer station and will be reimbursed. Receipts and photos must be submitted to our Volunteer Reporting Form and emailed to Brian Pratt.
