Mess must be cleaned up

Dear editor,

What’s shown in the photo above looks worse than this and the mess in the woods defies description.

Is this how we want our visitors to see our province?

How many dollars of tourism advertising are negated by this mess?

This is an engineered “pull-off” and as you can see it is frequently used.

No garbage containers, no toilets and amazingly not even a notice to tell travellers there is a proper rest area a few kilometres further on at Buckley Bay.

Someone has to smarten up and do something about this mess.

Chris Carter,

Comox
