Chris Wicht's Camp Cleanup - Saturday February 2nd, 2008

Help the Friends of Panamint Valley remove trash and debris from this historic site in Surprise Canyon.

The Friends of Panamint Valley in cooperation with the Bureau of Land Management Ridgecrest Field Office is organizing a cleanup opportunity of the historic site of Chris Wicht's camp in Surprise Canyon, Panamint Valley, California.

Chris Wicht camp, the former residence of the famous Ballarat bartender and most recently occupied by the Novak's, burned down in September of 2006. Debris from the camp's workings is in need of removal and we need the public's help to get the job done. A previous effort in the canyon netted almost 20,000lbs of trash and scrap metal, but there is much more to be done.

Cleanup activities will begin Saturday morning and continue through the afternoon. Camping is available on Surprise Canyon Road, about 1/4mile east of Indian Ranch Road, north of Ballarat.
