Join the Cleanup Effort at Snake River Canyon This Saturday

On Saturday, May 18, 2024, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Twin Falls District, along with local groups and Jerome County, will host a community cleanup at the north rim of Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls, Idaho. This event, part of a 25-year tradition, aims to tackle illegal dumping and vandalism in the area. Volunteers are welcome and should arrive prepared with appropriate clothing, sturdy shoes, gloves, rakes, and shovels. The cleanup starts at 8 a.m. and ends at 2 p.m., with the meeting point at the Snake River Canyon Park kiosk on Golf Course Road.

David Freiberg, a BLM Outdoor Recreation Planner, noted the improvements in the canyon from past cleanups, but mentioned that litter issues still require ongoing community efforts. Jack Hartmann, President of the Southern Idaho Off-Road Association, thanked the community for their support and stressed the importance of maintaining the area's cleanliness to enhance its recreational value.
