^^^ weve started doing the same
it sucks we need to, but it sure makes those really nice clean spots when you dont have to do a pick up patrol after gettting there all that much more sweet.
last weekend the wife told me she was gonna pu around camp. i spotted a few cans right on the river bank and wandered over to grab them. once i got there i realized they were older cans. looked down on the bank right next to them and noticed some other really old trash that someone burried a long time ago and the river was washing away the bank exposing it. i decided to have a dig and get it all out the bank so it didnt just end up in the river. found 10 or so shasta cans (most rusted to nothing), a handful of olympia cans, plus a couple coors and bud cans. two michelob bottles, two unidentified random bottles, a propane tank, a egg carton, an old marlboro box, and something i couldnt id, but it reminds me of an old paint stripper. i have a buddy who collects old stuff, so i bagged it up to bring home for him to dig through.
did a little looking round the nets to try and figure out how old the stuff was. the shasta cans were steel with aluminum tops and bottoms. i dont ever remember cans being like that. other than the tallboy coors which was aluminum and steel like the shasta cans, the other beer cans were all aluminum but both beer and soda cans had pull tabs. from what i could find, im guessing this stuff is 45-50 years old. any one else wanna take a guess?
