Landfill Lechate Wells

|

These three wells (shallow, middle, deep) are about 100 feet for the landfill, to monitor how much pollution is leaking from the landfill. Officially most of the pollution comes from the GAL or Greater Albany Landfill, built prior to liners being required for landfills, but all liner systems fail -- sometimes before the garbage is degraded enough to have less leachate and methane to leak into surrounding lands.

Cutting My Own Path

|

For part of my ski route, I followed Shultes Road which is a seasonal use only road. Nobody had hiked, or skied on this road since the last snow last weekend. It was tough going for a while, but it was still good to be the first one there.

Getting Camp Set Up

|

I've had my eye on this campsite ever since it was created with the new UMP plan and logging a few years back, but usually I like to head further out of town for weekend trips, but with only one night of good weather, this was perfect for roadside camping. Might be hot in the summer, though there is good southernly shade.
