Friends of Gold Butte
Gold Butte Road Information Sign
Highway 170 at Gold Butte Road
Riverside, NV, US
We know you “Pack It In, Pack It Out” and “Leave No Trace,” but others are sometimes not as courteous. Let’s get together and pick up any trash we find along the roadway.
Join the Friends of Gold Butte as we pick up debris and garbage for a couple of hours and then gather for lunch, and a treat. Meet at the Junction of Gold Butte Road and Highway 170 at 9:00 am and then we will caravan to the work site. We will be working along the paved portion of GB road, so 4WD is not necessary.
Friends of Gold Butte will supply buckets, trash bags, & gloves. Be sure and dress appropriately for the weather, and wear something you don’t mind getting dirty. We will be back by early afternoon.
• What to bring
Bring plenty of water and a lunch for yourself, and remember to wear sunscreen, closed toe shoes and a hat.
