From the Geocaching web site:
Cache In Trash Out is an ongoing environmental initiative supported by the worldwide geocaching community. Since 2002, geocachers around the world have been dedicated to improving parks and other cache-friendly places. Through these volunteer efforts, we help preserve the natural beauty of our outdoor resources!

CLEAN-UP ZONES:
See the child waypoints for parking at Zones 2, 3 and 4. All four zones are linearly spaced along the road and the entire length could be walked in a little over 30 minutes.
