This is our last CITO to gain the Season 1 Souvenir. We will be concentrating our litter picking on Lon Eifion, most of the cycle path is litter free but some areas are awful. Our base will be on the old bridge as in previous litter picks. We will be splitting up into 2 groups with some volunteers starting in Bontnewydd to work their way back towards Caernarfon while others starting at the beginning of the path in Caernarfon. Hopefully in the allotted 1.5 hours the two groups will meet some where around the ‘Crossing’ cache.
