Pro Tip: The best way to enjoy this event is to paddle to the end of the trail, spotting for likely trash along the way that you want to come back to, then clean up as you work your way back. This way you get to enjoy and experience the entire trail without getting bogged down with the trash at the beginning and missing the chance to see the whole trail.
