Mt. Bonnell Clean-Up.
Mt. Bonnell Clean-Up

Where: Mt. Bonnell City Park
Mount Bonnell Road
When: Saturday, January 19th, 2008
9am-1pm

Thanks to all who helped out with this clean-up! With over a dozen climbers and more than a dozen non-climbers pitching in to pick up trash, Mt. Bonnell is now in much better shape than when we found it. We cleaned up all visible trash along the mountain top itself, which is what the City of Austin's Parks and Recreation Department was most concerned with. With that taken care of, a number of volunteers decended down into the woods at the base of the cliff to clean up some of the more visible litter there, as well.

We also received a lot of press coverage from three local television stations, so our efforts were very visible and well-advertised.

There's still a lot to do at the base of the mountain, so hopefully we'll get an even bigger turnout next year.

Thanks, y'all!
