I know I posted this over on IG, but the people it needs to reach are mainly over there. If you are on IG please like it to help it reach more.
I just visited Hautacamp and a "Skoda We Love Cycling" plastic sticker on the road is still there and breaking up and bits of it is spread all over this beautiful Pyrenees mountain.
I hope that we can get them to come and clean up what's left and hopefully they will in the future not leave litter like that around.

Mud season rule: walk through it, not around it. Stepping off-trail to dodge mud widens the path and kills vegetation. Your boots will dry — the damage won't heal.
If a trail is too muddy to pass, come back later. 🥾🌱
Please remember, dog people, when it's breeding season (Spring/Summer), there are nesting birds and other wildlife hidden away in the grass, under rocks, behind trees etc.
Letting your dog run off-lead through meadows etc is highly disruptive to breeding animals and can kill them. You might not see or realise.
Please leash/lead your dog in open and wild spaces. Run with them, stay on trails and pathways as much as possible
Please.
Sad to see our park signs treated like this. Public lands deserve respect and we should take care of what belongs to all of us. From a Scenic Overlook in Southern #Appalachia 🌲🪧
I think I am able to read enough to find a forest ranger's name that I can research and add to #WikiTree for #genealogy.
