Is there an app: remind me when I get back here
The basics of what I'm after is very, very simple: Push a button, it notes your location. When you reach that point again it tells you. I've looked around and I don't find anything that seems to meet this description.
Use case: Yesterday on the way out I noted two pieces of trash. I generally pick up trash on the trail but not with that far and hard to go (3000' climb, 9 miles, many snow patches.) Of course I didn't see them on the way back down.

I think what you are looking for is called a GPS/location alarm.
The basic idea is that you set a point and the alarm goes off when you reach it. People use them on public transport to wake up before their stop.
In this specific case you would probably want to make a note of the coordinates and then set the alarm on the way back down. Of course most GPS already have this functionality using waypoints just without the alarm.
