The annual fall migration of fishermen to Haines is generating complaints about roadside trash and human waste.

Natasha Coleman, who lives near 25 Mile Haines Highway, said she recently cleaned up three boxes of empty cans and bottles and food garbage from a state sand pit near her property.

Campers were parked there over the weekend. “When they were leaving town, you can see where they pulled over, dumped it and left it,” she said.
