Minimum Impact

Leave No Trace, Low Impact Camping, Traveling Light

Call it what you will, but it all means the same thing and has the same objective; to decrease individual and cumulative impacts on the natural environment we are visiting. There is an old saying, "Take only memories, leave only footprints;" this should be the foundation of all your outdoor travels.

Your trip leaders will educate and advise you on specific practices for each trip. Please take a moment to review the information below about taking care of our outdoors (links open in separate window).

Treat the earth well. It was not given to you by your parents. You are only borrowing it from your children.
