We are back out in the Morgantown harbor area and upriver above the dam and into the Uffington area all summer and through the fall. We go out nearly every Saturday for approximately four hours.

We've worked on the area above Deckers Creek where there is usually trash on the lovely peninsula there, around Montego Bay and Red Rocks (next to the new marina below the rail trail at the Subway shop) and then across the river at the approach to the Morgantown Lock. That's the Morgantown harbor portion.  

Then we go up through the lock and there is plenty of bottles and cans along both sides of the river above the dam. So, we've been keeping after that.  Then we ride up toward Uffington and spot litter on the way.  We've discovered that litter is being blown upriver from the dam, and we can get this when it lodges along the banks.  We cannot directly affect the litter behind the dam because that area is restricted.

To save fuel and have less of an impact on carbon in the air from the engine, we shut the engine down and drift along the bank, using an anchor to hold us in close enough to grab the litter.  Works well, especially if the wind is blowing onshore.  Some older photos
