I think they said the Greek/Israeli ship owners are fully cooperating and willing to pay for the clean up – i.e. helicopters. But being such a remote place, it is hard to get people there. I met a fellow named Leonard, from the Port Hardy Reservation and he said the Coast Guard asked all the Bands to come out and help clean up the beaches. Leonard said only four people showed up from his Band. He was quite surprised. He had a big duffel bag and said he was going to bring some of the inflatable plastic unicorns for his kids. He said he needed runners too, but all we found were right foot shoes only. I collected a lot of board games with their tiny plastics pieces and 100’s of bags of gravy! My thighs were burning from all the squatting which made hiking and biking very difficult afterwards as we had hiked down a secret Coast Guard trail and biked down the closed off logging road (helicopters were dropping off refrigerators on the logging road). We made a promise not to post the secret trail on social media.
