Dear Editor:
Once again people are leaving Christmas decorations in the forest.
The entrance to Pennzoil [an intermediate mountain biking trail on Mount Fromme] is heavily decorated again.
I removed a garbage bag of Christmas decorations from Baden Powell, St. Georges crossing at the bench for a second time in two years.
Last year, whoever set up the decorations never bothered to take them down. They also left ribbon all the way up the climbing trail.
This does not belong in the forest. Glitter is microplastic. It never decays, nor does tinsel.
It’s nice to be in the Christmas spirit but this does not belong in the forest.
