Powder River and Downtown Baker City Spring Cleanup

Come join the Powder Basin Watershed Council, Baker City Downtown, and North 7 Brewing for the 2026 Powder River Spring Cleanup! We will meet at Geiser-Pollman Park on April 25th at 10:00 to remove trash from the Powder River.

Last Year, our volunteers removed almost 200 pounds of trash from 1.8 miles of the Powder River in Baker City! Some interesting items our volunteers removed from the Powder were a flying pig dog toy, a shopping cart, and a pair of sneakers!
