Mostly the Fall Creek and Oakridge areas...all within a 45m drive up highway 58 or a couple of hours on Forest Service roads.
We've gone as far north as Detroit, as far south as Tiller. Far east as the waterfall viewpoint just west of the pass on 58.
Forest Service has pointed out one or two, we monitor neighbood Facebook watch pages and other social media and we do a lot of scouting. I have a knack for finding things.
Most trash follows the same rules...first 2-3 roads out of town on public lands. Or any close surrounding roads near transfer stations.
Usually you find the vehicles by just watching out with a sharp eye. Look for glints in the sun, tracks down long abandoned roads... especially ones with litter...broken brush, trails of broken "recovery gear" - I swear people think they can recover a vehicle with a 500 lb strap from HF or a broke ass come along.
I guarantee there's a lot more out there once you get trash eyes.

Is it a bigger town that you live by, or not far out of a bigger city?
Most of where I go is hours from any larger city. Most towns are ~1k-2k people and have kind of a country/farm community state of mind.
It just blows my mind that so many people can have so much disregard for your forests and woodlands.
