Video of some campers

More video of illegal campers, Nov 29, 2016

December 14, Rangers continue to ignore this nuisance and the number has increased to well over 30. Contact with Supervisor Serna's office had no effect. The garbage piles are also growing and spreading.

Dear Mayor Steinberg,

There is a human crisis underway in Sacramento. Thousands of people are camping on the streets and along the river in below freezing temperatures. Please declare a state of emergency and move these suffering people to Arco Arena to get them out of the cold and then compel them to accept the mental health care they so obviously need. No mentally healthy rational person would accept these living conditions so the responsibility falls to government officials to provide for their safety and welfare until they can demonstrate competence to care for themselves. It is cruel and inhuman to allow this crisis to continue for even one more day! Government officials, do your duty!

May 23, 2017 I rode on this trail and there are still dozens of illegal campers with multi room tents, piles of stinking garbage and even some makeshift wooden structures made from stolen pallets. Over 200 days since I first posted but this has been going on for years. Remember the Oprah exposure? Nothing has changed, except my address!

Still there, I give up.
