Just a heads up for garbage at exit points. There is no local crew cleaning up after you, and stuffing garbage under rocks comes up the year after! Please help to keep trials and exit points clean. If you see some garbage on your way, pick it up, and jump it down.

Thanks!

Can this be made sticky, since I guess this can goes for the community around the world.

Hi 434,
The title of of your post is spot on.
I will, and have often, jumped down minor trash that wasnt mine. Cig butts, wrappers etc. But I wont jump down anything else such as cans, glass bottles and big plastic bottles. I dont mind hiking them down with me if the jump didn't happen. But I aint gonna stuff my track suit with it because there is not much room (like in a wing suit hahaha :-)
Take care,
space

Also, cans of Go Fast left right next to the place in the fence that "conveniently" lifts up, I mean come on people don't be retarded, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out...

For those people leaving water bottles: buy a platypus (or something like it from another brand), they are easy to carry, lightweight, and when they are empty you can roll them up and put them in a pocket and easily jump them down.

Tracey could even stash one of these in HIS pockets, and it's true, with his homemade chili and all the german beer there's not much SPACE there
(that was intended!)

they come in 0.5L, 1L and 2L, so you can even have special ones for diffenent lengths of hikes...

Jumping bottles down, was the beginning of our tracking style in Norway. That is the secret why we had such killer tracks. Army pants with one bottle outside pockets, and 3 down on each leg. It kept the tension on the pants, and it gave us bigger surface. Not to forget when my zipper broke and I got an air valve to ;-)

... guilty as charged! ...sometimes my bkfst bean burrito doesn't make it down...
sorry...
