There is a post on this already, it's quite lengthy so it may be a good idea to start it over again.

Honestly, I don't know where some guys find this stuff, all I find is shoes, dead animals and tire "alligators".

I ride the Allegheny River Trail from Emlenton, PA. 5.5 miles worth along the river in the cover of trees. Thus far, I've seen 1 bottle cap from a water. The last half mile before I turn around and go back is in a tunnel. I can't list everything in there. Let's just say, garbage.

Animal wise at Moraine State Park there are 2 fawns right now that I've seen twice on the path eating grass along the side. I got off and walked between them and could pat them each on the head as I walked through if I wanted to. Other than that, last night I was surprised not to see any deer on the Allegheny and only saw 1 squirrel. There is several spots on the river with geese. Haven't seen a bald eagle yet, one of these days I should, they are around. There are bald eagles at Moraine as well, suppose to be 7 of them someone told me.

Saw lots of folks paddling the river yesterday and even saw a person on the trail. I don't know where everyone is because the lot is always pretty full, but I'm there daily now and I rarely see another person.

Riding along yesterday I saw a chainsaw chain lying in the middle of the traffic lane.

Abandoned car, once. Looked like it had been stolen/joyriding.

LOL, that's probably where the idea came up for me. Its kind of like, when I "invent stuff" in my head and then see it in the store - obviously I saw it somewhere at some point.
