The Tonto National Forest is hosting the annual Lower Salt River Recreation Area
cleanup, on Saturday, February 16 from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. to help restore a portion of the river
to its natural beauty. Participants will sign-in and receive directions to trash pick-up locations at
Blue Point Recreation area (see map and directions below) between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. on the day
of the event. The trash pick-up begins immediately after sign-in and will continue until about
noon.
Tonto Daily Passes are not required for participation in this event. The Tonto National
Forest will provide trash bags. The majority of the clean-up will occur in the river bed near
water so participants must wear closed-toe, rubber-soled shoes that can be worn in rocky
terrain. We urge you to wear sunscreen, hats, gloves, and bring trash pickers if
available. Participants are also urged to bring plenty of water as bottled water may not be
provided. Thank you for helping keep our waterways clean!
