Many people put in over 20hrs of hard work over two days to complete this undertaking. It was hot and dusty. Everyone was smiling! Thank you car crew, you moved a mountain!!!

Stats thus far:

Vehicles- 96k+ lbs
Dump runs- 10k+ lbs
Tires/Hazmat- 1700 lbs
Debris containers- ??? (Info coming soon)

Thank You Central Oregon and beyond. We are starting to see a difference in the China Hat area.

  • People need to stop making a mess out there but thanks all who helped in this clean up 🙂
  • @CaseyLaDelle
    Update, the total amount of trash and junk removed was 131,870lbs!!
  • @chadsparks3010
    You and Jason are what we Marines would call a force multiplier. You bring more then just yourself to the fight. Your videos result in a lot more people coming to the cleanups. I never thought watching tractor videos of you and Grumpy would end up with me cleaning up other peoples trash but it did. Thanks and keep up the good work.
  • @onebridge7231
    You just can’t fix assholes! Great job clearing their mess Casey and all the volunteers that donated their time and work!
  • @duanebuck193
    Congrats! It shows now that you hit 100K! Casey, you might feel that you are only an itsy bitsy little cog, but it's all the little pieces that make it so that the larger ones can function with ease. Every little bit matters!!
  • @barneygirl9643
    Wow! What a clean up effort by everyone involved!👍👍😎 Thank You for everything you do to help! Stay safe out there!❤️🙏
  • @lvsqcsl
    This is the 3rd cleanup video you have made since I have been following you, Casey. I want to thank you and all who participated. Great video!
  • @atgnag
    With all the bad news in the media, it's nice to see people doing something good. I'm sure this kind of thing happens a lot around the country, but never gets coverage on the main news. Thanks to everyone who pitched in to help on this, you are all awesome!
  • @gsettlemyre
    Don’t sell yourself short on how much help you are to the PLS, as the other gentleman at the end said it was a big portion of your viewers that showed up and shared these videos just like I do, and I live in Michigan. Amazing work by everyone involved in the clean up and thank you for what you do on a daily basis. Team work makes the dream work. And I estimate the total trash, vehicles and everything picked up is around 133,000 pounds!
  • I spent one day helping a trail crew of volunteers last Spring in Sierra National Forest. The group, Stewards of the Sierra, have been doing it for decades. It was very rewarding and I plan to do it again. The OHV staging area was closed to public for a good part of the summer due to using it as a base for fires near Yosemite.
  • @wesdavies9500
    It's so much easier to change the oil filter when the truck's upside down!
  • @chrisslky7018
    Thanks for everyone that can attend, support and do their part. Check with your employer. Mine offers Volunteer Time Off. I used the time they offer Monday instead of using normal PTO. Looking forward to helping out again in September.
  • @sandyposey8074
    Man, I can't believe how many volunteers showed up to do this. That was awesome! So sad that there is a need for it though! Great job to everyone!
  • @BlueDart1971
    I would love to see a group of people do that in my area. There’s so much trash and abandoned cars just up the road. Awesome!
  • @Knightraven000
    Almost 100K! 👏 Congrats! Crazy that there are so many abandoned cars out there!
  • "...that makes my videos do really well..." That's when I tapped the Like button. Thanks, Casey, for all your hard work. Both in YouTube and in the forest. And thanks to your editor. They really make you shine!
