EarlyBronco Report post Posted April 13 Does anybody know who to contact to get trash cans put back at the spill way? They removed the trash cans last year and people just bag their trash up now and leave it all down the bank, or burn it and leave it all over the place, the river and the banks are filthy, just wondering who would be the contact for this?

I remember when they started charging to park at Canyon under the guise that employees were not paid very much and the charge was to be applied for increased wages.

Put it out to bid on a five year contract. Have a small staff to manage it as part of their regular roles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No need for that with 3rd party. Write a contract with T&C's that is just a couple of pages and not 15 or 30. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildwoody Report post Posted April 14 They'll probably tell you that you don't need a tonto pass there like Indian point so they don't have to maintain it.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sky Island junkie Report post Posted April 14 Stayed at Windy Hill 3 nights last week and I’m assuming maintenance is done in house. Saw 4-5 green people huddled under one of the ramadas one afternoon BSing. Campgrounds were well taken care of but yeah they probably don’t venture far from the shade this time of year.

CouesPursuit Report post Posted April 14 They want you to have a Tonto Pass but there are no trash bins or toilets at Bermuda Flat. No fish cleaning stations open that I've seen in years at Cholla or other main rec sites (please correct me if I'm wrong). I saw a lot of people not purchasing passes because of the circumstances. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
