Kyle Keller found a vintage Coca-Cola bottle made in Valdosta, Scotti Jay and Will Hart found antique pull-tab cans, and Will pulled up a tire rim with a bottle embedded. Melissa Stewart raised a traffic cone, a large piece of metal, a tire, an RCA TV, and a wasp nest.

In addition to these things we could find only at very low water, everybody found the usual more recent single-use throwaway plastic bottles, styrofoam cups, and cans.

This is Part 2 of of WWALS cleanup from Knights Ferry to Nankin Boat Ramp, on November 22, 2025, led by Will Hart and Scotti Jay.

You’ve already seen Part 1 with mattresses and other trash at Knights Ferry Boat Ramp, the new water trail signs, the creek nearby, the old bridge pilings, and many rocks.

And Part 1.1: Where does this little creek by Knights Ferry Boat Ramp come from? 2205-11-22.

Part 3 will follow soon.

Kyle Keller was actually at Knights Ferry Boat Ramp to do a video on fossils in the river. He was going to go about half way and paddle back up, but he was having so much fun he paddled through. For his previous fossil finds, see his Wild Kyle facebook page and YouTube channel:
