Illegal Dumping – Do your part to stop it!

Why dump in desert?Dumping in the desert is illegal. It is bad for the environment and it is bad for the wildlife that lives there. I and alot of my trail friends are tired of dumping in the desert and we will report it.  Trail Watch volunteers are trained to report illegal dumping, so beware. Fines for dumping can cost you $500.00 and up.  I have been involved in upto two trail clean up events each year for the last five years and it still amazes me what gets dumped in our desert. Trust me when I say that “Eyes and ears” are watching the desert along the River Mountains Loop Trail.  Please bag it and can it at the curb.

DO YOUR PART TO STOP IT BY REPORTING IT!

The Nevada Division of State Parks, in partnership with the Nevada Division of Outdoor Recreation, is developing Nevada’s first-ever Statewide Trails Plan—and they’re asking for your input.

This plan will guide future trail development, access, and management statewide, supporting activities like walking and hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and off-highway vehicle (OHV) use. Your feedback—especially from communities historically underrepresented in planning—will help identify opportunities to connect neighborhoods, improve existing trails, expand equitable access, and protect Nevada’s natural resources.

The survey is open through November 30, 2026. Please share with your networks and encourage residents and visitors to participate: Links in the comments.
