The Friends of Plumas Wilderness Need Your Help!
Calling all nature lovers!
The Friends of Plumas Wilderness, along with Lost Sierra Fly Guide, needs your help to remove coal from the beautiful Middle Fork Feather River.
Here’s the story: Back in February, a train derailment spilled coal into this iconic river, designated “Wild and Scenic” for its outstanding beauty and ecological value. Local fly-fishing guide Matt McCourtney recently noticed the coal washing ashore and decided to take action with the Friends of Plumas Wilderness.

Join Them on Sunday, October 6th!
Meet near the cleanup site (directions linked below) at 9 am for a quick briefing before working together to remove the remaining coal.
What to bring:
- Clothes for the weather
- Hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses
- Water, snacks, and a lunch
- Positive vibes and a love for the outdoors!
Provided:
- Tools, trash bags, and gloves
Sign up to volunteer!

Let’s work together to restore this precious waterway!
