I caught the Lowndes County Litter Crew on site, at Folsom Bridge Landing, on the Little River west of Hahira on GA 122, on the WWALS Withlacoochee and Little River Water Trail.

Earlier this year they won a Georgia statewide award. They pick up weekly at all the public river access points in Lowndes County, also on the Alapaha River Water Trail (ARWT). I thanked the litter crew for doing that.
And I thank Lowndes County Public Works for their longstanding agreement with WWALS that they will pick up bagged trash we leave at boat ramps after cleanups.
The Litter Crew was using their RV down towards the river.

Their truck was up on the paved road, because the access road is so eroded.
Maybe Public Works could do something about that erosion.

There’s a well-used road under Folsom Bridge along the river downstream to the south. It turns out that goes to a very nice beach.

Not sure I’ve seen a construction before like that deadfall ladder.
This beach is on Lowndes County parcel 0009 072, JLH LAND COMPANY, 2736 JAMES RD, VALDOSTA, GA 31601.
There were no Posted signs. But if you go there, clean up after yourself; don’t trash up this private beach.
There are more pictures below.
